Going into this assignment, I didn't really have that any experience with using electronics hands-on and arduino except Tinkercad circuitry with batterys as my source of voltage. This week we designed some simple circuits and analyzed them. I built three circuits and analyzed them through various points.
Second I tested a circuit with a potentiometer and button. In this circuit, the button would withhold the voltage until releasing it when pressed. The potentiometer like the resistor also limited the voltage but only slightly by .01 from the max voltage of 3.30V when dialed to the left but would return to normal when dialed fully to the right.
First I measured the basic circuit (although it is shown below the blinking circuit). I found that when compared to each other, their voltage both lessend quite a bit when measuring after the resistor and peaked at around 0.03 amps. When there was no code uploaded to the arduino and there was a positive wire connected to the digital slot 13, the basic LED circuit didn't light at all due to not taking in input through code. Here is the ardunio code that is involved with the blinking:
