Male-Female Jumper Wires: Used to connect components to the breadboard or to other components with female connectors.
Female-Female Jumper Wires: Used to connect components with female connectors to each other.
4. Resistors:
Lead 1: One end of the resistor.
Lead 2: The other end of the resistor.
5. Capacitors:
Positive Leg: The longer leg of the capacitor, marked with a "+" sign or a stripe.
Negative Leg: The shorter leg of the capacitor, marked with a "-" sign or no stripe.
6. Diodes:
Anode (Positive Leg): The end of the diode with a stripe or a "+" sign.
Cathode (Negative Leg): The end of the diode without a stripe or a "-" sign.
7. LEDs:
Anode (Positive Leg): The longer leg of the LED, marked with a "+" sign or an arrow pointing towards the LED.
Cathode (Negative Leg): The shorter leg of the LED, marked with a "-" sign or an arrow pointing away from the LED.
8. 1 k Variable Resistor:
Center Pin: The middle pin of the variable resistor, connected to the wiper (moving contact).
End Pins: The two outer pins of the variable resistor, connected to the fixed contacts.
9. Photocell:
Anode (Positive Leg): The end of the photocell with a "+" sign or an arrow pointing towards the photocell.
Cathode (Negative Leg): The end of the photocell without a stripe or a "-" sign.
10. Buzzer:
Positive Pin: The end of the buzzer with a "+" sign or a red wire.
Negative Pin: The end of the buzzer with a "-" sign or a black wire.
11. Button Switch:
Normally Open (NO) Pin: The pin that connects to the circuit when the button is pressed.
Normally Closed (NC) Pin: The pin that connects to the circuit when the button is not pressed.
Common (COM) Pin: The pin that connects to both the NO and NC pins.
Connection Guidelines
When connecting components, follow these guidelines:
Always connect components to the breadboard, using the shortest possible jumper wires to minimize interference and electrical noise.
Identify the polarity of components (e.g., LEDs, capacitors, diodes) and connect them accordingly to avoid damage or incorrect functionality.
Use the correct type of jumper wire for each connection (e.g., male-male, male-female, female-female).
Ensure that the power bus and ground bus on the breadboard are not connected to each other, as this can cause a short circuit.
When using the variable resistor, connect the center pin to the output signal and the end pins to the fixed resistors.
By following these guidelines and understanding the pinouts of each component, you can build a wide range of IoT projects using the Basic Electronics Kit.
