Hello everyone,
i would like to control the rotation speed of 4-5 fan (12v 0.7a). How can i do this?
Moreover, how can i controls multiple devices (temperature sensors, fan, LCD...).
There's a limit with the Arduino uno I/O pins?
If yes, how can i extend the Arduino I/O capabilities?
Thank you very much

Did you even Google? Lot of hits. But it depends on it you use 2/3-wire fans or 4-wire fans

By connecting them and writing a program that can handle all that. Hint, baby steps

40mA absolute max, combined all 200mA. Better to stay under 20mA per pin.

Loads of options. Shift registers, IO expanders, just using I2C/SPI devices, connecting it smart (for example multiplexing). Really depends on what you want. But remember, a lot of wires is also a lot of mess I mean problems uhm, work.
Thank you for the reply.
About the four fans: those are a 3 wire fans.
About this "By connecting them and writing a program that can handle all that. Hint, baby steps", i've put the question in a wrong way.
I mean, how many deviced can i connect to the Arduino 1?
Till now i need:
4 fans
5 temperature sensor
1 lcd screen
2 peltier modules.
1 piezoelectric
There are enough pin to control all these devices or should i extend arduino in some ways?
Thank you
3-way fans, use a transistor. I would go for a mosfet.
And about the devices, depends on the details. For example, each fan independent? What temperature sensors? If you take a 1-wire or I2C sensor you just need one set of pin(s). Lcd the same, what lcd? And for the peltiers (and depending on the type, for the piezo s well) use a transistor again.
"Worst" case:
4 pins for fans
5 pins for temperature
6 pins for LCD
2 pins for peltier
1 pin for piezo
18 pins <- would just fit on an Uno even keeping the Serial pins free.
"Best" case:
4 pins for fans
1 pin for temperature (1-wire)
2 pins for LCD (I2C)
2 pins for pertier
1 pin for piezo
10 pins <- More then enough pins on a Uno
