Tutorial Video

Magic Box 2.0 - S1E2 - Intro To Breadboard, Schematic vs. Circuit, Multiple LEDs

Video length: 41:37

Key Topics

  • How a breadboard is connected internally
  • The difference between a schematic and a physical circuit
  • Wiring multiple LEDs

Before Moving On

Make sure your circuit and code from this lesson work reliably before continuing to the next episode. Save your code so you can build on it in later lessons.

What’s Next?

In Lesson 3, you’ll design a five-LED circuit and learn how 4-pin pushbuttons work.
