ARDUINO UNO
• Weak 8-bit microcontroller
• No built-in connectivity
• Cheap ($20), but Wi-Fi Shields cost an extra $15-50
• Arduino Mini/Micro for path to production, but connectivity is harder to add
RASPBERRY PI
• Powerful SoC but more expensive ($30-45)
• Built-in Ethernet, but need to pay $10 extra for Wi-Fi adapter
• More complex environment with Raspbian Linux (though Windows 10 IoT Core helps )
• Difficult path to production with no built-in wireless

DEMO Hello World – Particle Photon Edition
P H O T O N P O W E R
The Photon can only be powered by a micro-USB cable from the host PC or micro-USB compatible power source (e.g. outlet, battery pack)
The Photon has 3.3V and 5V (VIN) pins and two GND pins to supply voltages to your project components
The photon can be powered by any power source via the VIN pin between 3.6VDC and 5.5VDC, and lots more with a variety of shields, etc

G P I O
• General Purpose Input Output
• Pin that can be controlled by the user
• Can be set to input or output
• Input can be things like temperature sensors, buttons, IR, etc.
• Output can be LEDs, Motors, LCDs etc
P H O T O N D I G I TA L P I N S
Pins 0-7 Are Digital Pins
pinMode(pin,INPUT) sets a pin as an input
pinMode(pin,OUTPUT) sets the pin as output
digitalWrite(pin,LOW) sets the pin to 0v
digitalWrite(pin,HIGH) sets the pin to +3.3V
digitalRead(pin) reads the pin state
Analog A0-A5, DAC & WKP pins can also be used as digital GPIO pins if they aren’t needed for analog use.

• Computers understand digital signals
• Analog needs to be converted (ADC)
• Analog signals are often useful for sensors that work by adjusting voltage / resistance (temperature sensors, soil moisture sensors, etc)
• Analog input covers voltage levels into a digital value within a defined range
• Digital is counted in fixed units, not measured.
• PWM – Pulse Width Modulation – to “fake”analog
• DAC / DAC1 pins are useful for non PWM readings, microphones, etc. (they don't use PWM)
• Serial Communication with Rx/Tx
P H O T O N A N A L O G P I N S
Pins A0-A5 Are Analog Pins. DAC pin counts as analog pin A6.
pinMode(pin,INPUT) sets a pin as an input
analogRead(pin) reads the pin value (0-1023)
These pins map to a 6 channel, 12-bit Analog-to-Digital converter (ADC). Lets you read an analog voltage as a mapped value that ranges from decimal 0 to 4095.A3 / A6 (DAC1, DAC) are non PWM pins, and don't use the ADC.

Providing more current than an LED is rated for can destroy the LED.To prevent that, you should use a “Current Limiting” resistor.
To calculate the value of the resistor you need to know the supply voltage, and the LEDs rated Forward Voltage (the voltage drop across the LED) and Forward Current (the maximum current the LED can handle)
C U R R E N T L I M I T I N G R E S I S T O R S
𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟 𝑉𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒 (𝑅) =𝑆𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑦 𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑉𝑠 − 𝐿𝐸𝐷 𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑑 𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 (𝑉𝑓)
𝐿𝐸𝐷 𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑑 𝐶𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡 (𝐼𝑓)
𝑅 =𝑉𝑠 − 𝑉𝑓
𝐼𝑓=
5𝑉 − 2𝑉
.02𝐴= 150Ω
𝑉𝑓 = 2𝑉𝑑𝑐 𝐼𝑓 = 20𝑚𝐴
𝑉𝑠 = 5𝑉𝑑𝑐
That said, you’ll likely find that for most quick experiments and demos you can skip using a current limiting resistor and just power the LED directly. USUALLY the LED will survive just fine, but sometimes…..

Pins D0, D1, D2/A5, D3/A4, WKP, RX and TX are PWM pins. Unlike Arduino, there is no “~” symbol to identify them.
analogWrite(pin,value) (link)
These pins use Pulse Width Modulation to simulate an analog voltage by turning the pin on and off based on the value provided:• 0 (always off ) - 255 (always on)• Can be used to dim LEDs, control motor
speed, etc.• https://docs.particle.io/reference/firmware/

Breadboards offer a great way to prototype circuits. The provide a number of “buses” for connecting both power and components.
Power buses run the entire horizontal length
Component buses give you easy ways to connect pins together
