Ideation
Ideation
the assignment this week is to Build circuit using (Motor, Buzzer, LED...etc)
My idea this week was to make a rotating lamp in a decorated box to make a nice shadow at night
i got inspired from instructables.com found an amazing lamp which attracted me alot

I Used the TINKERCAD platform to simulate the circuit and calculate the values of current and resistors that I will need.
I used the 9V Adaptor as a power source for the lamp and the motor
I also connected the components of the circuit in parallel, because if they are connected in series, the voltage will be divided by the number of components, each according to its resistance, and therefore not all components will work as required.

Building the circuit:
Building the circuit:
I used the electronic components I mentioned above to build the circuit of the project.
Circuit test:
Circuit test:
After building all components of circuit, I plugged the adaptor into the electricity source to make sure that it is working properly.
Cutting the cardboard:
Cutting the cardboard:
The next step was to cut the cardboard according to the following dimensions:
Electronics enclusure: 30*10*5 cm.
lamp box diameter: 10*10*10cm.
The bracket for the lamp : 10*10 cm. D=5 cm
i opened a circular place R=3 for the on/off switch and the adaptor socket
After that, I Assembled the structure of the fan using the glue gun.

in the beginning i used 5 volt adaptor but it didnt work well
the lamp didnt give good light and the motor was so slow then i changed to 9 volts and then it worked very good
