Circuits

We used a breadboard to experiment with transistors and LEDs. We then used a transistor to make an OR gate.

We also made several types of circuit structures with the Cedar Logic program. We used AND gates, OR gates, and an inverter to make an XOR gate.

In addition, we used several basic logic gates to make a flip-flop.

Soldering

We learned about soldering and made LEDs on a Maker Faire blinkie.

We soldered on the battery holder, then we soldered on the pin, then we soldered two LEDS on to the two sets of connections on the board. We then inserted the battery, and the LEDS were supplied with power rainbow colors.
