Course Description

Welcome to this course.

This course will teach you how to Make Long-Distance Communication between Two Arduino Boards using Wired and Wireless Connections, This Guide will take you in a step-by-step manner to know what the needed components, why we use them, and how to wire them up, starting with the basics of Arduino Serial Communication and ending with Sending data over a very Long distance.

You will know what is the actual working principle of Long-Distance Communication, what are the right communication protocols to be used, and how to interface the required module to make this happen.

We know that Arduino has several built-in buses for fast data transfer, for example, The SPI Protocol and I2C Protocol. Various kinds of sensors are often connected using the I2C communication protocol.

There is also the popular UART universal asynchronous receiver transmitter protocol, which is often used with a USB interface to exchange data with a laptop or computer. But all of these methods have a serious drawback. They do not work at large distances.

Imagine a situation where we need to collect data from sensors on the roof of our houses and depending on the location of the sensors, our hardware, and software setup, we need to transfer a signal from this sensor to our Arduino on the first floor.

How can we make it possible? 

We'll definitely need a powerful Long Distance Transmission method, one that can be used for years, and in this course, we will cover this, we will cover wireless and wired long-distance communication methods between two or three Arduinos or any two microcontrollers, whether they are Arduino microcontroller or any other types of microcontrollers.

We will make it as simple as possible.

What you will learn in this course?

  • Learn what is the hardware required to make this happen.

  • Learn what is RS485 and how to implement this communication protocol in long-distance communication.

  • Dake down the schematic for connecting Two Arduinos using RS485 protocol over a long distance.

  • Discuss the receiver and transmitter program for RS485.

  • Talk about the circuit assembly and we will break down the HC-12 module working principle for long-distance wireless communication between two Arduinos.

  • Perform communication of the Arduino to Arduino using the HC-12 module.

  • Explain how communication works with Arduino transceiver.

  • Create a PCB for this project.

I'm sure that you will gain a lot of knowledge in this course.

My passion is inspiring people through online courses. I love learning new skills, and since 2007 have been teaching people like you everything I know. Through my online learning business, Educational Engineering School, I create courses that teach you how to become the better version of yourself with all kinds of skills.

What would you like to learn?

Would you like to make money being an Embedded System Developer?

Would you like to build your own 6-figure business?

Would you like to learn how to code, circuit design or solder electronic components?

Would you like to make better projects?

Would you like to start an embedded system career, create  great projects, kick start an idea, program, simulate, and create PCB Boards, launch a freelance career?

If you want to do any of these things, just enroll in the course. You have a 30-day money back guarantee if you don't like it. And I'm always improving my courses so that they stay up to date and the best that they can be. Check them out, and enroll today!

More About Ashraf:

I've always tried to live life presently and to the fullest. Some of the things I love to do in my spare time include football, biking, traveling to new places, watching sports (huge football fan here!), and sharing meals with friends and family.

In 2012, I graduated with my Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering at Azhar University - one of the top schools in the country. While there, I was fortunate to make Embedded Systems project using Arduino, PIC Microcontroller and other modules. After graduating, I worked at My own university as a Teacher Assistant . I followed that stint with a contract at a local College where I discovered how amazing it is to share your knowledge offline, which made me eager and eventually found myself starting my own online learning journey. I helped more than 100k student since then. Most recently. Throughout this time I built my Educational Engineering School Online brand to teach others the skills that I have. Now I only do things I love each day.

I want to show you how to be a better Embedded System creator, make money from your skills, and live the life you dreamed of.
