TinkerCAD - Breadboard Lab - Spin a Motor CW/CCW With Slide Switches
In this TinkerCAD Lab, your goal is to use 2 slide switches to control a DC motor. While this lab uses 2 slide switches (SPDT) which let you simulate the position of each slide switch, typically this would be implemented with a DPDT switch where as you switch the "throw" it switched bot switched at the same time.
🛠️ LAB Activity
Using the 2 slide switches "cross" the power and ground, so the Motor will spin CW when they are both "left" and spin CCW when they are both "right".
Use the push button to control if there is any power going to the switches.
