The basic building blocks
The building blocks
Every (electronic) device, even the most complex system, is build up out of a few high level building blocks. It is essential that you know about the four basic blocks and learn to identify them.
The four blocks that we need to learn:
* Power * Input * Control * Output
LittleBits
We will use the [[1]] as a playful introduction to recognizing and working with the four basic modules. The LittleBits modules have a color which corresponds to the basic blocks we just defined:
* Power - Purple * Input / Control - Pink * Output - Green
At the end of the class every group should have made a little project (or larger project combined with an other group) consisting of at least an input and an output. Every group does a quick show and tell about:
* how does it work * what are the different components you used
