We used a new software this week which called TINKERCAD .
We used a new software this week which called TINKERCAD .
TINKERCAD is a website that helps us to build and simulate electrical and electronics circuits . That helped us protecting our real components from getting burnt because of high voltage or wrong wiring or polarities .

Electrical Saw
Electrical Saw
For this week I had many several ideas but some of them were comlex . So, in the end I decided to simplify my project as possible . I decided to create a prototype for an electrical Saw .
Needed components :
mini breadboard - LED - DC fan -330 ohm resistor - On / Off switch- Jumpers - crocodiles wires - 5 V adaptor .
I created the electrical circuit using tinkercad .

To make an electrical Saw you will need to use these components :
5 V adapter ( power source )
DC fan ( output 1 )
Jumpers
LED ( output 2 )
330ohm resistor
on/off switch
I needed to wire the on / off switch with the positive and negative outputs of the adaptor to be connected in series with the whole circuit .
I also needed to wire the LED and motor in parallel .
So , when you turn the On/off switch on the LED and DC fan are turned on .

Overcoming Challenges
What kinds of challenges or problems did you face while doing the assignment, tutorials, or exercises? How did you solve them? Did you ask for help from an instructor or peer? Please provide a link to the tutorial or article that you used to solve your problem (if any)

I had an issue that I didn't figure it out . It took me hours to find why the LED and motor were turned on wether th switch was turned on or off .
I checked wiring , checked components and tested every single component directly with the adaptor . In the End after hours of disappointment I checked the crocodile wires and one of them was burnt ;( .
Simply I changed it and used another crocodile wire .
So , Please check all wires , crocodiles and components before taking any action of creation . That's why they invented the AVO for .
I had a problem using the DC motor . I couldn't attach any cardboard parts to it and that's why I used the DC fan instead .
