The leads

Skills: Build

Statement

This time only two leads are available (counter in the palette).

Drag a lead from the +V terminal of the supply to the big hole of the left leg of R1 (E4), and a lead from COM to the hole of the right leg (G4).

The colour is chosen automatically: red for +, black for −.

2 hints from Bastaya available in the lab
Solution

The lead plugs into the big hole of the leg: that hole is a circuit node, the leg and the plug share its potential.

How does it work?

Each big hole is a circuit node: you push one leg of a component into it. The 4 small holes around it are connected to it: chips and leads plug in there.

  1. Place a component Drag it from the palette: it snaps onto the grid. R rotates it.
  2. Bridge neighbouring holes Pick the jumper chip (or C) and drag on the board: bridged holes become a single node.
  3. Draw a lead For long links and the power supply: from one big hole to another, or to a terminal.
  4. Close the loop The circuit is solved live (Ohm, Kirchhoff) and the diagram follows.
