Some code related to (very) basic electric circuit lab with Arduino board

Introduction

It's April 2020, the world is fighting against the spread of covid-19. As a consequence all laboratory activities in schools/universities are stopped.

To lower distances with students, in this repository I'm going to summarize some activities that can be performed at home with a low cost Arduino kit. All experiments are very basilar and related to a specific aspect of basic circuit theory. The main aim is to touch with hands concepts that would remain otherwise too abstract.

YouTube videos

Each experience is accompanied by a YouTube video (Italian language only).

Currently, the following activities are present:

  1. Open a Serial Communication with the Arduino board using the Serial Monitor integrated in the Arduino IDE and with Python (Python 3). --> link to rev. 2 (old version)
  2. Acquisition of an electric voltage. This is done using the application of a voltage divider. --> link
  3. Measurement of an equivalent resistance. --> link
  4. Thévenin's theorem: computation and experimental validation. --> link
  5. Superposition principle: computation and experimental validation. --> link
  6. Maximum power transfer: experimental validation. --> link
  7. Circuits in time domain: the RC circuit. --> link
