Unit #5-03

Learning Outcome

At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

review that a "circuit" is a complete loop, with a power supply moving electrons

go over how a breadboard works
- watch video, "How to Use a Breadboard"
- the circuit lines
- how components go in
- how LEDs must go in a particular way
- why you need a resistor
  - LED resistor calculator
- that we will only use 3.0V
  - and 0.09 A current
go over schematic diagram
- in electronics it is used to represent a circuit in easy to understand form, with all the information so that you can reproduce the circuit
- we will be using "Draw.io" right inside GitHub and Codespace
  - do demo of Draw.io
    - add in "electronics" section

create a repo called: TEJ2O-Unit5-03
create your "Single LED" circuit on a breadboard
- use a single red LED and a 220 Ω resistor
- first in TinkerCad Circuits
  - download a picture of it
