'''week 1 - Building my first circuit.'''

I met with Kate and together found out how to make an LED turn on. So exciting!

''The electrons trip''

They come from the '''5-15VDC power supply''', they go through the '''power supply connector''', to the '''switch''', to the '''5V regulator''', to the '''220 ohm resistor''', to the '''LED''' and finally to '''ground'''.

'''week 2 - Start with code.'''


Paralel Circuit. (Each LED receives the same voltage but uses more miliamps. That means that the battery will be usefull for less time.

LEDs in series. (The voltage is divided in each LED. If you have 5v coming from the 5v regulator, and you have 5 LED in series, each one will receive 1v.

After a long time I got the light turning on and off with the switch.

code:

DEFINE OSC 4

input portb.0
output portb.1

output portd.2
output portd.3


main:

if portb.0 = 1 then
high portd.2
low portd.3
else 
high portd.3
low portd.2
endif
goto main
PAUSE 1000
low portd.2
high portd.3
pause 500

goto main

'''week 3 - Variables and ADC.'''

With a variable resister (flex sensor or potentiometer) I turn on a series of LED's one by one.

It workssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))
Rocio's code. Thank you Gilado!
Code with if statement: Attach:switchOnCd.pbp
Set a variable so that we know when we have already pressed the button.
