CIRCUITOS TINKERCAD | Mediateca de EducaMadrid

In this way, we are going to learn how to use Tinkercad as the simulation of an electronic 00:00:00

circuit. 00:00:09

As you know, Tinkercad can be used online, so the only thing that you must do is go to 00:00:12

the web page thinkercad to this address and log in in your account or in your in your class 00:00:20

you have a class this year and you can log in in your class just using the password 00:00:37

remember is ordenador plus the number of your computer 00:00:47

When you are in your account, the first thing that you can see is the dashboard. 00:00:51

So in your dashboard you have the different designs that you have created with the different 00:01:13

tools of Tinkercad, because at the beginning it was just only for 3D printing, but now 00:01:21

it's more than this. 00:01:27

On the left you have different new apps and one of these is Circuits. 00:01:29

So if you click in Circuits, you can have the dashboard for Circuits. 00:01:36

And in Circuits you can create a new circuit. 00:01:44

Well, it has advantages and disadvantages if you compare, for example, with Cocodrill 00:01:48

or with BitBlock. 00:01:58

We are going to comment these advantages and disadvantages. 00:02:00

So on the right you have all the components. 00:02:05

So for me the main, the first disadvantage is that they are pictograms. 00:02:08

They aren't symbols. 00:02:15

So you can learn the symbols of the different components. 00:02:17

On the other hand, it's also true that it's more real or it's more similar to the real 00:02:23

life I would have in the real life. 00:02:32

But you can learn at the same time the symbols of different elements. 00:02:36

So for me, this is one disadvantage. 00:02:43

Another one could be that you don't have a polymeter. 00:02:47

So you can't do measures, you can't do calculations of different circuits. 00:02:57

For me are the two main disadvantages. 00:03:05

And another one is, as you can see here, you have a direct current motor, a micro servo 00:03:08

motor and this kind of motor, but you haven't a servo motor, a continuous servo motor. 00:03:24

So you can use some application that you use a continuous servo motor. 00:03:32

On the other hand, well, you have several components, well, you can use with these different 00:03:41

several components. 00:03:52

And in our example, the first part of the first step is to create the circuit. 00:03:54

So to create the circuit we need a breadboard. 00:04:05

This is a breadboard we have already studied. 00:04:11

As you know, all the holes that are connected by the same wire are very easy to know because 00:04:15

application shows you the holes that are connected. So it's easy to understand how 00:04:26

this breadboard can be used. Well, we are going to begin with the left. We're going 00:04:41

to create a very easy circuit with just only one LED. So this is a LED, as you know this 00:04:50

LED of this terminal must be connected to the negative of a battery and this is for 00:05:04

the positive of the battery. In our case we are going to connect this to ground and the 00:05:15

other one must be connected to a resistor because you need a resistor if you want to 00:05:34

protect the lead. So we are going to use this resistor. The value of this resistor must be 220 00:05:44

because your Arduino board gives you 5 volts. So if you take into consideration this, you can 00:05:55

calculate the intensity current is about 5 volts less 0.7 and this is the 00:06:16

resistor so is you can you can calculate the intensity current if you want so now 00:06:30

We need 00:06:37

So we need to connect this with this, with the cable. 00:07:24

In this case the color of the cable must be red. 00:07:41

So we have a very simple electronic circuit just only for one lathe. 00:07:48

This must be connected to the positive of the battery. 00:08:00

But instead of a battery we are going to use Arduino One. 00:08:04

So in Arduino One we are going to connect ground and then this is to one digital pin, 00:08:16

for example this one. 00:08:34

You know that in Arduino One the main parts of Arduino One are these are digital pins, 00:08:45

These are for analogical pins, usually are inputs, not outputs, just only inputs, analogical 00:08:58

inputs. 00:09:09

And here have some pins for power, power and ground. 00:09:10

This is microprocessor and you can also have a run and roll memory. 00:09:16

So now we have the connection. 00:09:24

have the connection of the of our electronic circuit our EC electronic 00:09:28

circuit with the board. Next step is do the program so to do the program click 00:09:34

encode and now here you have this program but it's not the 00:09:41

program that you must use because in this case you must know which is the 00:09:49

digital pin that is used as output so here you have outputs and we need 00:09:59

this one that is the output and our output is 11 so clicking 11 it isn't 00:10:15

height means that this is switched on. How much time? For example, three seconds. And then switch 00:10:28

off during just only one second. This is a loop that is repeating forever until you switch off. 00:10:42

So if we begin our simulation, the result is this. 00:11:09

Just only for one leth. 00:11:21

So in our example we have three leths. 00:11:28

So we must repeat this process three times. 00:11:33

one with lead, that in this case is not red, is yellow and another one which is green. 00:11:42

So now we are going to do the connections, this to ground, this to the resistor and this to a digital pin, for example 7. 00:12:15

The same for green, this to ground, this to resistor, and this to a digital DIN. 00:13:15

And now the code. 00:13:39

We are going to repeat this code three times. 00:13:42

One in PIN 7 and another for the PIN 4. 00:13:46

So, yes, we have. We have everything. Now, do the simulation. 00:14:20

Well, another disadvantage is, another drawback, if you compare Tinkercad with BitBlock is, 00:14:39

Well, and now, how can I download to my board, my real board? 00:15:14

It's not possible in this case. 00:15:22

The only thing that you can do is download the code and then upload this code in one Arduino environment. 00:15:25

And from Arduino environment download to your board. 00:15:44

In BitBlock you can't do directly, in this case no, but it has, as you can see, some advantages and some disadvantages. 00:15:48

Well, as you can see, this is the code in Arduino. 00:15:59

Well, try to understand it, I think it's not so complicated, you can understand more or less. 00:16:09

You need to define the pins, and if they are digital, if they are input or output, in this case are output, and then delay is just only weight, it's the same. 00:16:18

Well, I think it's not so complicated, this program is very easy to understand, it's very simple. 00:16:35

So you can begin to understand and to know how to do a program using Arduino. But you can download directly to your board. It's another disadvantage of Tinkercad. 00:16:45

And this is all for today. I hope it can be useful for you and it helps you to understand how to use Tinkercad, not just to 3D printer, as another application. It is growing. So maybe next year we can understand another thing. 00:17:07

Bye and see you next day or in next video. 00:17:34
