In this section of the site, you can test your knowlegde of some basic components and what they do. Once you think you have your answer, highlight the area in between the arrows to find out if you're correct.
1. Diodes that light up. They have a positive and negitive side, the anode and the cathode.
-> LEDs<-
2. Sometimes made of ceramic, these things decrease voltage, and are very useful.
-> Resistors<-
3. These things make almost every circuit work and are essential for complicated ones. They direct the flow of power and you can program them.
->Transistor chips<-
4. This certain type of sensor detects how close the closest solid object is by sending out a very high pitched noise and waiting for an echo.
-> Ultrisonic sensor<-
5. These parts are what can stop the flow of energy, and let it pass through again.
->Push buttons <-
