I chose this idea because of its simplicity, I came up with the idea of the project from the dimmer that controls the lighting of the lamp bulb, and to add another action I provided a buzzer that gives a higher sound by reducing the potentiometer and gives a very weak sound when increasing the potentiometer , I found most of the projects on the internet there were Arduino, but I was able to install this project without it.
This week I used tinkercad program to virtually create the electrical circuits for the assignment and make sure that the operation of these electrical circuits are work so that I can actually install physical hardware circuits and also used fritzing program to draw the schematic diagram of the electrical circuits that I made
and these are the materials I used to make assignment jumpers, buzzer, green and red led, 220-ohm resistors, on-off. Switch, potentiometer, breadboard, 9V / 2A power supply
switch is off
now switch are on
After watching all the videos of the week I draw the electrical circuit on a sheet and calculated by the Ohm law the required current in led & buzzer then began to draw this circuit on the tinkercad program and put all the components of the circuit on the breadboard such as a buzzer, potentiometer, 220-ohm resistor, led next starting simulation and make sure that electrical circuits are work right after that making physical hardware circuits
I used fritzing program to draw the schematic diagram of the circuit and put on it the required current for each of the action components
After making sure that the electrical circuit that I made works well by tinkercad program I first came to breadboard and put on it green LED & red LED in parallel and connect them series to the Buzzer next connect them on the positive side to 220-ohm resistor after that connect the resistor to potentiometer and connect this circuit entirely on the on-off switch to control the opening and closing of the circuit plus connecting the circuit to a power source up to 9V
After confirming LED lighting and Buzzer sound output I measured the required current from led and buzzer by avo meter
my peer advised me to chose a sample project to do, I offered to help my peer
First, I ask my peers if they didn't have the answer I go to the instructor
I had some problems in my first exercise where I used a lot of resistors to get purple color in RGB LED
I went online to find out how to light up 7-segment display and I did it.
You should watch some videos to clarify the vision further.
the first exercise
the second exercise
I benefited a lot this week and I will use what I learned this week to connecting the circuit of my final project because it contains an LDR sensor, and this sensor is the base of my project because it contains a lot of movement
I think the most interesting thing this week is tinkercad, because it's one of the easiest and most fun emulators I've ever used.
I also think how to use the Avometer and calculate the required resistance via Ohm's law
I uploaded the pre-activity video on flipgrid and had a lot of fun trying it out
