The document contains 4 questions: 1) The Atmega328P MCU used on Arduino has 14 digital I/O pins and operates in a voltage range of 5-5.5V. 2) If all 14 digital pins had an LED connected, the current through each LED would need to be limited to around 25mA to avoid overloading the pins. 3) A high-brightness LED requiring 350mA current should have its own power supply rather than being connected directly to an Arduino pin. 4) An oscilloscope could be connected to the TX pin to measure the time taken for serial print messages to be sent from the Arduino to a connected PC.

1 Question 1: How many pins does the Atmega328P MCU used on the standard
Arduino have? Over what range of voltages will it operate?
2 Question 2: Assume that you have an LED connected to each of the 14 digital- only I/O pins on the Arduino. If all of the LEDs could possibly be on at the same time, what must the current be limited to through each of the LEDs? 3 Question 3: Assume that a project requires that a high-brightness LED be on any time that the Arduino is powered-on, and that this LED requires 350 m A . What is the best way to supply power/current to this LED? 4 Question 4: Can you think of a way to use the oscilloscope to measure the time it takes to print out the message in the sketch you are currently running? Possible hint: Digital pin 1 (TX, a.k.a. transmit) is the pin over which serial data is sent to the PC.
