The USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a standard that defines the cables, connectors and used a bus to connect, communicate, computers, peripherals and electronic devices protocols Transmission Rates Low speed (USB 1.0). Transfer rate up to 1.5 Mbit/s (188 kB/s) used in keyboard, mouse ... transfer rate up to 12 Mbit/s (1.5 MB/s) High Speed ??(USB 2.0): Rate transferencia up to 480 Mbit/s (60 MB/s) SuperSpeed ??(USB 3.0) transfer rate up to 4.8 Gbit/s (600 MB/s) Connector Types 1 - USB type A (4 pin) 2. - USB type B (4 pin) 3 - Mini A (5-pin) 4 - Mini B (5-pin) 5 - Micro A (5-pin) 6 - Micro B (5-pin)

or horizontal. The micro USB with five pins, which pins identification (ID) Micro AB USB connectors special work. AB connectors with pin ID can allow the device to function as a connector A or B to standard USB technology. This gives the new smart phones and other devices the option to act as either a single storage device or as provi

The mini USB connectors are smaller than their standard counterparts and have USB fifth pin. The fifth pin is known as the pin ID and is typically not used in mini USB connectors. It was designed to allow later improved USB technology. The mini USB connectors have a cycle life of at least 5000 connections and disconnections, which accommodates the mobile nature of the devices that are designed to interact. The standard USB connectors are generally used with devices that are stationary and not disconnected often.

USB 3.0 is the second major revision of the standard Universal Serial Bus (USB) connectivity for computing. USB 3.0 has transmission speeds of up to 5 Gbit/s, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0 (480 Mbit/s). Connector Types 1 - USB type A plug 2 - 3 USB type A female - USB type B 4 - Micro USB B

Surface mount technology, better known by its acronym SMD (Surface Mount Device) is the method of construction of electronic devices most currently used. It is used for both active and passive components, and is based on the assembly thereof SMC (Surface Mount Component English) on the surface of the printed circuit. In the case of SMD LED technology is the differently constructedon the plate makes SMD LED and have a physical difference.

USB-C reversible USB version called USB cables USB Type C Type C or USB reversible. The important thing is this type of USB is that it has top and bottom. So you may save the blows that are given involuntarily to connect the connector upside down. It is also characterized in that when connected will make an audible "click". The USB-C or reversible USB cables can reach 10 Gbps and support USB 3.0, 3.1Use is estimated up to 10,000 applications and has some measures 8.4mm x 2.6mm is also compatible with USB 3.1 and USB indicate creators

PWM technically be the pulse-width modulation (also known as PWM stands for pulse-width modulation) of a signal or energy source. It is a technique in which the duty cycle of a periodic signal (a sine or a square, for example) is modified, either for transmitting information through a communications channel or to control the amount of power that is sent to a load. Pair

The SMD LED is an LED module that uses a surface mount technology to place a diode on the surface of a printed circuit and encapsulated on a semi-rigid resin. Typically used for lighting all types, since its opening angle can be 360° and LEDs, being very small, they can be distributed throughout the bulb. Ideal for decoration lighting in homes or places of transit dondand they will not be on continuously. It is also often used in automotive interior lighting. Each LED SMD chip is identified by a 4-digit number. This code identifies the size of the LED chip, the first two digits indicate the height and width the next two, in millimeters. For example, the dimensions of a LED 5050SMD are 5.0 x 5.0 mm. There is an exception, 3528SMD LED chip is also knownon how 1210SMD, with dimensions 3.5 x 2.8 mm.

The SMD led (surface mounted device) refers to how the LEDs are mounted on a board. This type of LEDs have a resin encapsulation on their surface. It does not reach the same performance as a COB LED and is usually used in less demanding luminaires due to its low heat dissipation, the main problem in this type of LEDs.

Its light is unidirectional, creating an angle of illumination is 360º to difof a COB LED. By not having any type of filament this type of LED is very durable and resistant to shock.
They are the typical LEDs that we can find in a strip of LEDs for decoration, we can find according to your design, a single LED that will emit white light or according to your distribution you can find 3 LEDs that emit the different primary colors that in combination will show different .

Your performanceIt is usually 60 to 70 lumens per watt.

Within the SMD LEDS range we can find those that work at 220v and those that work at 12/24v.
Its nomenclature is of type SMD5050, SMD3528 and SMD3014 etc. where the figures indicate the size of the led, for example a led SMD5050 will have a size of 5x5.0mm

Arduino is defined as a combined system between hardware and software, which allows users with or without programming knowledge to create projects from scratch. Thanks to its low cost and its wide range of accessories, it has become one of the most appreciated devices by the creative community or called makers (creators).

Within the Arduino range we can find different devices, which will allow us to easily create projects that perform different functions. Its open source GNU free access is essential in the maker community, which allows its creator to develop almost any prototype he can think of.

Arduino was created with the aim of reducing and lowering the material costs needed by interactive design students from Ivrea, Italy, since the devices they used previously were very expensive. This new Arduino project reduced the cost of the material each student needed and eventually became a commercial product as we know it today.

These small plates consist of a SRAM memory, with its own flash storage system (EEPROM), microcontrollers and a microprocessor, currently we can find different processors for the most current models, such as processors:

- 8-bit Atmel AVR
- 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+
- 32-bit ARM CortexM3
- Intel Quark (x86) 32-bit

Arduino has an open source programming software called the Arduino IDE, with which anyone can create the basis of a new project. Both software and hardware are compatible with Windows, MacOS, and Linux operating systems. Its programming only requires a USB connection to the PC and the free programming software.

Among the different devices we can find the main Arduino board, the nerve center of any project, among which we can find:

- Arduino Uno R3
- Arduino Leonardo
-Arduino 101
- Arduino Explore
-Arduino Zero
- Arduino Mega 2560
-Arduino Due
-ArduinoMicro
- Arduino Nano
- Arduino MXR 2 UNO Adapter
- Arduino MKR Zero
- Arduino Yun
- Arduino Ethernet among others



In order to expand its functionality, we have a wide range of shields or modules that allow you to expand its functionality, such as screens, Wi-Fi modules, etc. these can be attached to the Arduino board itself, thus allowing it to read inputs and send data outputs. Among some shields we can find:

- Xbee wireless modules
- USB ports
- Sensors
- Breadboard
- Card readers
- WiFi connection
- Motors or servos
- Ethernet connection
- GPS module
- GSM module
- RS232 module
- Relays
- LCD screens
- Sound and DMX

Among some examples that we can create with Arduino and its external components we can find clocks, scales, alarms, automated irrigation systems, a battery tester, control of mechanical arms and much more.

Thanks to its large community of makers, we can find hundreds of projects to carry out on the net, ideal for delving into the world of electronics and programming, whether at an educational, professional or domestic level.
