Bench Notes: Making Ohm’s Law Visible

Context (Why this caught my attention) physical. I wanted to build a few small circuits where voltage, current, and resistance aren’t just calculated—they show up in measurable, tangible ways. I’m looking to connect the equation to behavior: The Relationship (anchor…

Introduction to My Bench Notes

My interest in electronics goes back many years. When I was in seventh grade, my father helped me build a crystal radio. I still remember the fascination of hearing a radio station through a device that required no batteries at…

Experiment 1: Basic LED Circuit

Introduction In the first experiment I introduced the breadboard and how to connect components without soldering. In this experiment I will build my first complete working electrical circuit. A circuit is simply a continuous path through which electric current can flow. If the…
