Components Of Bike Light Funcction Flashcards
Name the components
Battery, LED, Switch, LDR, Transistor (base collecter emitter), VR
Battery function
This is the power source for the circuit and it provides the voltage
LED function
Light Emitting Diode- A component that gives off light when current flows through it
Switch function
Makes or breaks the flow of a current
LDR function
Light Dependent Resistor- Is a type of resistor that senses light. High resistance when light levels are low and low resistance when light levels are high
Transistor function
Sensitive Electronic Switch- When current is detected at the base of the Transistor it turns on and a larger current flows from the collector to the emitter.
VR function
Variable Resistor is a type of a resistor that allows you to change he value of its resistance
