Arduino Mini

I bought an Arduino Ethernet shield which is used for design the Arduino Nano. After that I thought that I could easily hook the Arduino Ethernet up to my Arduino nano but its can not be done so I feel I was wrong.

I have not much more information to this that how can its use but I have some knowledge about the IO pins.

I tried to hook up the all the matching wires with my Nano but it was not success.
After that I bought a proper Uno then I find in which 6 pin connector but its  not properly categorize and the 6 pin connector have not special shape its very simple so its can hook up very easily but in two ways.

After that I had to do little bit searching that what pin connecting to Nano nd what connected to shield, to make sure I could not be connecting backwards.

So facing these problems I thought that I would add this fast small instruct able so that any other would not face these problems again.

Then I am sure that I find the much more use for another Arduino.
Here we present a new instruct able that hook up an Arduino Nano with a smaller WIZ550io module.

 Parts Of Arduino Nano

  •       1 ArduinoNano. (if you have already Arduino Uno, just plug it)
  • .    1 Ethernet shield with SD card slot, with Wiz net w5100 chip. The w5100 have lot of programming which is directly support the Arduino libraries.
  •       5 mm hookup wires.
  •      1 breadboard
  •        1 micro SD card
  • .     A couple of business cards or a piece of paper.


For software you will need the Arduino 1.0 software
The Nano is similar to the Uno but it is very small and has male header pins. Its is very wonderful for plugging into a board. You can buy the Ethernet shielded for the Nano but it is very expensive.

When you are going to buy the shield,you have to note the important point that some of the shield do not support the SD card.Here,I buy the shield which has SD card in it-that will not cost that much and it will be very beneficial for various other projects.
It also allows for much more advanced ethernet board examples!

When you are going the files in SD card you will find the many way to hook up into computer. To success this work we will need a micro to regular SD card adapter. I am using the SD to USB.

Insert Arduino Nano into breadboard
We are using the Arduino Nano many times if we have interest in this. I joint my Nano at the right side of board so that the USB connect at the edge and this edge has two holes i.e. D12 & D13. It’s become very beneficial to use board at this time


 Plug ICSP of shield onto the Nano
We are going to make the connection but very carefully. At this time we can’t use the power in the board.

We can connect the shield in two ways firstly to cover the nano and other does not.we need to plug in the shield so that all nano make visible. This turns out well, as it gives full access to the Nano connections that way.

Also make sure that you get all 6 pins plugged in.
Because the shield's pins are all exposed underneath, I had some business cards underneath to ensure that the pins cann’t accidentally connect with the power bus.

Connect the wires
Connecting the wires is easy - simply match up the label on the Arduino Nano with the same label on the ethernet shield. The ICSP connector does most of the work and hooks up the power, so we only need 5 wires to complete the setup:

Pins 11, 12, 13 (SPI bus)
Pin 10 selects the w5100
Pin 4 selects the SD card

Test the setup

To test the setup, you can use the built in Arduino examples under the File-Examples menu list, under the Ethernet and the SD folders.

One thing that's a bit of a bother is that it only supports the old DOS style 8.3 filenames, not long file names.

We are going to test the Ethernet and the SD card at the same time.


Ladyada is the updated version and you can replace this outdated reference to server with Ethernet server and client with client server.
