Airplane LED Light Kit, Soldering Project for STEM Teaching Students Teens Learning
Introduction:
It is an Airplane Flashing LED Circuit Electronic Kit. It can simulate the flickering effect of airplane lights and create a very artistic desktop decoration.
【Soldering Learning】 The icstation airplane kit includes a few DIP components and 7 LED flashing lights, making it suitable for beginners to grasp basic circuit knowledge and practice soldering skills. Follow the detailed instruction manual, it takes approximately an hour for you to complete the soldering of this kit. The soldering process is relatively simple, making it an ideal choice for beginners. Please pay attention to the polarity of the components during soldering.
【School Education】This airplane kit can be served as a part of DIY projects, igniting students' creativity and interest in electronic devices. It can also be utilized in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) courses, assisting students in applying theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios.
【Creative Gift】 You can personally solder and DIY an airplane flashing kit as a unique gift to kids. Alternatively, spend a memorable time with your son, daughter or grandson during a special soldering practice. Place it in the living room or on a desk, and it will become an exquisite decoration!
Supplies
1pcs DIP-16 CD4017BE decimal counter at U2.
1pcs DIP-8 NE555P timer at U1.
1pcs DIP-16 IC Socket at U2.
1pcs DIP-8 IC Socket at U1.
1pcs 1Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R3.
1pcs 5.1Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R2.
1pcs 10Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R1.
3pcs 3mm Red LED at LED1, LED4, LED7.
2pcs 3mm Green LED at LED2, LED3.
2pcs 3mm Yellow LED at LED5, LED6.
1pcs 0.01uF 103 Ceramic Capacitor at C2.
1pcs 10uF Electrolytic Capacitor at C1.
1pcs Power Switch at SW.
1pcs CR1220 lithium battery at BT1, BT2. (Watch kids under 6 carefully)
1pcs CR1220 lithium battery socket at BT1, BT2. (Watch kids under 6 carefully)
2pcs PCB circuit board
Install 1pc 1Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R3
Install 1pc 1Kohm Metal Film Resistor At R3.
If a resistor come with 5 color bands, the 1st 3 bands represents its values, the 4th band represents the multiplier and the last band represents the tolerance. Eg: Brown 1, Black 0, Black 0, Brown 10 and Brown 1%, so it will be a 1000Ω (1Kohms) with 1% tolerance resistor.
Install 1pc 5.1Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R2
Eg: Green 5, Brown 1, Black 0, Brown 10 and Brown 1%, so it will be a 5100Ω (5.1Kohms) with 1% tolerance resistor.
Install 1pc 10Kohm Metal Film Resistor at R1
Install 2pcs CR1220 Battery Socket at BT1, BT2
Please pay attention to the installation direction and metal sheets should not come into contact with resistor or pad.
