  1. Boe-Bot Review

  2. Topics • Current, Voltage, Resistance and Ohm’s law • Flow Charts • Schematics

  3. Voltage and Current Voltage and current can be compared to water pressure and flow. When the valve is opened, what will happen? What determines how fast the water will flow?

  4. Voltage and Current Of course water will flow from the fuller tank because it has greater pressure than the empty tank. The flow rate is dependent on: • The difference in pressure between the two tanks. • The amount of restriction to flow in the pipe and valve.

  5. Voltage and Current In a battery, there is surplus of electrons on one side, and a deficiency of electrons on the other side (holes). When a circuit is completed, such as putting an LED in it, a flow exists from one side to the other. This is called Current.

  6. Holes (+) - + - + - Electrons (-) Voltage and Current Current can be viewed in one of 2 ways: • Electron Flow: Electrons flow from the negative side(-) to the positive side.OR • Hole Flow or Conventional Flow: Holes, or the absence of electrons, move from positive to negative as the electrons move.

  7. Voltage and Current Which version of flow is used doesn't matter. How much flows does. Just as with the water tanks: • The greater the pressure, or the difference in potential (Voltage), the greater the amount of current that can flow in a unit time (Amperes). • The greater the restriction to flow (Ohms), the lower the amount current that can flow.

  8. Ohm's Law • Ohms Law states: The amount of current (I) that will flow is proportional to the voltage applied (V), and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the circuit. I = V/R • As Resistance increases, current decreases.

  9. Explain the voltage readings below using Ohm’s law. The battery is rated at 1.5 V.

  10. The Resistor The resistor is a device used to limit the amount of current in a circuit. Because it is so small, color bands are used to identify the value. • 1st Band: 1st Digit • 2nd Band: 2nd Digit • 3rd Band: Multiplier • 4th Band (if present): Tolerance.

  11. For the resistor shown:Yellow = 4, 1st DigitViolet = 7, 2nd DigitBrown = 1, add 1 zero.470 Ohm or 470 Tolerance is how far off itcould be from the labeledvalue:Gold: 5%Silver: 10%none: 20%

  12. What is the resistance of a resistor colored Brown-Black-Orange?

  13. As the current path from Vdd(+) to Vss(-) is completed, the LED will light. • What happens if the LED is reversed? • What happens if a 1K ohm resistor is used? • Do you need to program the Boe-Bot to light this LED?

  14. What happens when both sides are connected to the same supply?

  15. How should Pin 14 be set to light this LED?

  16. What is required to make this LED light?

  17. This circuit demonstrates how a switch can create a short-circuit---why?

  18. What values will be read at Pin 3? • Is the circuit active high or active low?

  19. Is this circuit active high or active low?
