Resources
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- shunt resistor
- A very low-value resistor placed in the current path so the board can measure the tiny voltage drop across it and calculate current. Its resistance and tolerance affect the maximum current range, heat produced and accuracy of the readings.
