Patrick, THE LID! - Electronics Team 13 Garrett Tower & Luis Hernandez

 


Do you have a friend that simply doesn't know where the lid is on a jar well do we have the switch for you! Our switch will help any of your friends that struggle with taking lids off jars by showing them that when the lid is off the jar the LED light will turn off, this is particularly helpful if your friend is a starfish named Patrick. So we of course used our lovely jar that was attached to a green LED attached to our Circuit Playground as the power source. The thought behind this idea was just what is a fun way where we could reference a pop culture idea while also still making the switch do what it needs to do, so we came up with THE LID.

Lovely little demonstration of Luis being Patrick.

Our schematic for THE JAR
Having the 5v power supply - the 2v LED divided by the .02 milliamps = 150 Ω which is the desired resistance.
