To start with
circuits, we understood the basic sign
and symbols and were ready to start with the circuits.
First was as simple
as just connecting the power source with one of the LED.
For which we used our coin battery of 3 volts with LED
Next was making the
same circuit on bread board using burg wires (male to male), because the
previous was very unstable.
Next was using a switch in the same circuit and
control the flow of current when pushed the button.
Next was using
450ohm and 10kilo ohm resistor to see the difference in LED intensity due to
resistors and decreasing current flow.
Now we changed the
output device in first circuit, which was LED with a buzzer.
Next was learning series and parallel connection on bread board.
SWITCHES :-
Force Sensor – Force sensor is a
variable resistance and can also work as switch.The force changes the value of resistance and in case of switch can
close a circuit when force applied and also records the value of pressure applied accordingly.
Tilt Sensor or switch - as explained in kit was used as it does not
need any coding , the output device reacts according to the state of circuit.
If circuit is on / close the device will give output either it will be switched
off.
Tilt sensors are used in cars and to detct the changes in axes.
Reed Switch - Reed switch is made of two flaps of a material which gets
influenced by magnetic field and such witch can be used to close a circuit in
magnetic field and remain open in absence of magnetic field.
This switch can be used for hands free switch. and can be used in products for magic tricks.
Flex Sensor – Flex sensor is a sensor which measures the amount of flex or bending force applied on the sensor,
and it does not need any coding but the burg wires are connected to aurdino uno to get the values on device.
Used in door sensors.
Water sensor – It has tracks of circuits on it, and as one can
figure out the process for what it is used is detection of water.
It can be used for detecting humidity (if made more accurate) and
rain.
