Tinkercad 40 Working with Circuits

SimpleTutorials

Tinkercad is a powerful yet beginner-friendly 3D design and modeling tool ideal for makers, students, and educators. In this course, you’ll learn how to create stunning 3D models using Tinkercad’s simple, intuitive interface. From building basic shapes and designing prototypes to exporting files for 3D printing, you’ll discover how to bring your ideas to life in a virtual workspace quickly and creatively.  In this video lesson, we’ll discuss about Working with Circuits in Tinkercad

00:00So what you can also do in Tinkercad is apart from making 3D models, you can go ahead and make

00:11circuits as well. So to do that, you can see that in the home page, there's circuit, create your

00:16first circuit design as an option as you can see right here. If I were to actually go around over

00:21here, then what happens is that I get my second part here and over here on the right hand side,

00:28you can see that I have different components. So I can go around for Arduino components right here,

00:34I can go around for microbit components right here, and I can even go for circuit assemblers,

00:40as you can see right here. Let's say for example, if I were to go around over here, there's a glow

00:45circuit assembly, as you can see, you can start the simulation and see that it is glowing right there.

00:50So I can go ahead and delete it or I can go ahead and bring in this as well. This is the one with

00:56with the switch, as you can see. So if I were to go ahead right here, you can see that it actually

01:01vibrates right here. So that is what you have. So now if I were to go around onto this circuit

01:06and delete, then that is what you have. As you can see right here, press control Z, you can see that it

01:11is attached onto this common point right here. So let's just go ahead and delete this out right here.

01:18So now I'm going to go to basic right here, just like this. And there's different components,

01:22as you can see right here. I can even bring in different Arduino components right here,

01:27or bring in all components as needed right here, just like this. So there are everything. So you

01:33can go around onto all and you bring in all of the components right here. Let me just go around onto,

01:39let's say for example, LED RGB right here, and then you can go ahead and then plug this in. Let me just go

01:46ahead and plug this in right here. And let me just go ahead and plug it to green, and then start the

01:52and then what happens is that if it works, it works. So let me just go around, utilize a simple

01:58LED red LED itself for this one. So let's just go ahead and connect it out right here onto common.

02:05Press start simulation. And then you can see that I can create a switch right here, just like this.

02:11So similarly, I can go ahead and bring in different components right here. As I mentioned, you can bring

02:16in different Arduino components as well. Let's say for example, I got two wire LED right here. So this

02:24is a pre-made component that you can bring in. And then this is what you have. As you can see,

02:29you can start the simulation. And if I were to go ahead and plug in, there's the hello world right

02:34here, just like this, as you can see. So you can also go around onto the code right here, and then make

02:40the changes according to how you want. So it says hello world right now that I can go ahead and say

02:45simple tutorials right here, just like this. And then press this exclamation mark right here.

02:54Start the simulation. And then what happens is that it says simple tutorials right here,

02:58just like this. And this is how you can go ahead and then experiment with output circuits as well,

03:05using Tinkercad as you like. So I hope you found this video useful. So be sure to comment on what

03:11you think about it. Be sure to hit the like button and don't forget to share this out with your friends
