Circuit Documentation

Summary

This document provides a detailed description of a simple LED circuit powered by a 9V battery. The circuit includes a red LED, a resistor, and a 9V battery. The resistor is used to limit the current flowing through the LED to prevent it from burning out.

Component List

LED: Two Pin (red)

  • Description: A red light-emitting diode (LED) with two pins: anode and cathode.
  • Pins:
    • anode
    • cathode

9V Battery

  • Description: A 9V battery used as the power source for the circuit.
  • Pins:
    • + (positive terminal)
    • - (negative terminal)

Resistor

  • Description: A resistor used to limit the current flowing through the LED.
  • Pins:
    • pin1
    • pin2
  • Properties:
    • Resistance: 200 Ohms

Wiring Details

LED: Two Pin (red)

  • cathode is connected to the - pin of the 9V Battery.
