What we're going to learn today:
What is an electronic circuit?
What kind of power is needed for these projects?
What are the fundamental principles of electronics?
What are the basic electronic components used in DC analog circuits?
How do these principles combine to make interesting things?
We're going to make some of those things, and you can take the kit, and the projects home with you.
What is a circuit?
Combination of electronic parts, wires connected between power sources. It's like a physical program. It's also like setting up dominoes in sequence.
What is a breadboard?
What are they good for?
Creatings, organizing, and prototyping a circuit.
Literally started out as a bread board with nails.
What are resistors?
Resistors provide a specific amount of resistance to a path in a circuit or wire. Ohm's law is used to calculate the properties related to resistance.
Ohm's Law: I = V/R
I = Current measured in Amps
V = Voltage measured in Volts
R = Resistance measured in Ohms
Resistors are color coded.
