Breadboard drawing of a potentiometer controlling an LED. A 7805 5-volt voltage regulator powers the board as shown in the circuits above. A potentiometer's outer connections are connected to the voltage bus and ground bus on the left side of the board. The center of the potentiometer connects to row seventeen on the left side of the center section of the board. A 220-ohm resistor is connected to row seventeen on the left side as well. Its other end is connected to row twenty-one in the left center area. An LED's anode is connected to another hole in row twenty-one. The LED's cathode is connected to row twenty-two. A black wire connects row twenty-two to the ground bus on the left side of the board.
