Component Descriptions

LDR

A light-dependent resistor (LDR) changes its resistance based on the amount of light it receives. Bright light lowers resistance, while darkness increases it. Often used in automatic night lights and solar garden lamps.

Tactile Switch

A momentary push-button switch that closes the circuit only when pressed. Found in calculators, reset buttons, and game controllers.

Two-Way Switch

Routes current to one of two output paths. Common in stairway lighting systems and dual-mode electronic projects.

DIP Switch

A compact group of toggle switches used to configure a circuit manually. Often used to set device IDs or behavior without software.

Potentiometer

A variable resistor controlled by turning a knob. Used in volume controls, brightness settings, or tuning circuits.

LED

Lights up when powered. Comes in various colors and sizes. Super efficient and great for indicators.

RGB LED

A single LED that combines red, green, and blue light to produce different colors. Can be used for decorative lighting or status indicators.

Beeper

Generates simple sound cues. Excellent for alarms, error notifications, or simple sound effects.

Speaker

Converts electrical signals into sound. Can be used for music, voices, or custom tones.

DC Motor

Converts electrical energy into mechanical rotation. Attach a propeller and you've got a fan; add wheels, and it's a vehicle.

Propeller

A plastic fan blade that connects to a DC motor. Helps visualize motor action and explore airflow-based projects.

Resistors

Control how much current flows through a circuit. Identified by colorful bands which indicate their resistance value.

Capacitors

Store electrical energy and release it when needed. Often used in timing circuits, filters, and power supplies.

Diodes

Allow current to flow in only one direction. Useful for protection circuits and AC-to-DC conversion.

Transistors

Small but mighty! These components amplify signals or act as electronic switches.

Timer IC

Often the 555 timer, these chips can generate precise timing pulses. Used in blinkers, delays, and waveform generators.

Junction

Connection points where wires or components meet—like an intersection in a circuit.

Power Module

Distributes power to all parts of your project. Often includes on/off switches and voltage regulators.

Jumper Cables

Flexible wires used to link different parts of a circuit. Great for breadboarding and experimenting.
