17
Types of Circuits Analog Continuous values of voltage between Ground and Power Digital Only On or Off, High or Low, or Ground or Power Hybrid
18
Datasheets Your crucial companion Consult the manufacturer's datasheet if unsure of a device's specific behaviour Of special interest Pinouts Absolute maximum ratings Typical application circuit

Features
23
Examples Analog Most sensors, the physical world Digital Your computer, most modern devices, your iPod for the most part
24
Schematics Symbolic representation of a circuit
25
Schematic More complex circuit
26
Useful Conventions Make your schematics and breadboards easier to understand and troubleshoot for yourself and others Learn to work like the pros
27
Conventions Wiring colors on breadboards Red for power Black for ground Others as needed, for example, inputs yellow outputs green etc. Schematic layout Maintain left to right signal flow Inputs on the left, outputs on the right(device & page) Power to top of page, ground to bottom
28
Some Common Formulas Ohm's law E = V = IR Formula wheel E - (emf) same as Voltage R – resistance I – current P - power
29
Circuits and Ohm's Law For resistive circuits
30
Series and Parallel Circuits
31
Series circuit Same current, voltage divides Parallel circuit Same voltage, current divides
32
Using Ohm's Law Equivalent resistance = 1470ohms
33
Illustration on Board
34
Series Example
35
Parallel Example
36
Our First Circuit Using an LED Determine the resistor value Use a switch to activate the circuit
37
Components Battery(power supply) Resistor LED Switch
38
Functions Battery to power circuit LED to produce the light Resistor to control circuit current suitable for the LED Switch to turn the circuit 'on'
39
Draw Schematic
40
Determine Values LED rated for 11mA(milliampere) forward current at 2V (volts) For a 5V battery power and 2V across the LED the remaining 3V need to appear across the resistor Since LED is rated at 11mA(0.011A) and is in series with resistor, same current flows through resistor. So resistor value should be 3/0.011 = 272.7ohm. We will use 270 ohm.

Calculation on Board
42
Physical Setup and Demo
43
Power Calculation
44
Test Equipment Multimeter Oscilloscope Signal Generator Power Supply Logic Analyzer Hand tools
45
Multimeter Use to measure Voltage, Current and Resistance Some measure frequency, capacitance, temperature and more *** Caution*** Take extra care when measuring current Start with a selection higher than the highest expected value
46
Making Connections Voltage is measured across device in circuit Current is measured in-line in circuit Resistance is measured across device, outside circuit
47
Oscilloscope Provides detailed graphic representation of signals Essential for signals with ac components Usefull for monitoring noise
48
Wire Stripping and Soldering For connectivity on PCBs For connectivity with connectors For connectivity with panel components For connectivity with general parts
49
Wire Strippers Automatic Manual
50
Manual Strippers Use the wire size label on tool or.. Use a position with a hole slightly larger than the wire diameter
51
Manual Strippers Determine strip length Place wire on hole Grab firmly Strip
52
Soldering Tips for good soldering Keep tip clean Heat the parts, not the solder Do not move parts during cool down Keep tip temperature only as high as necessary Work with a damp sponge ready
53
Soldering is easy! Follow 3 simple rules Save yourself countless wasted hours in troubleshooting your project
54
Very Important ***Clean Tip*** ***Clean parts*** Hot enough tip for the job Larger parts need higher temperature 750 ~ 900 deg, normal 850deg ***remember to lower dial to 400deg when idling
55
Parts Safety Semiconductors, some capacitors are sensitive to heat Use heat sinks when necessary
56
Homework Simple series parallel circuit Simple LED circuit Simple light bulb circuit - (optional) Build 2 nd circuit, get details on wiki Short paragraph about what you wish to be able to do at the end of the 8 week session
