Name of Circuit - LED flasher
- Function of the circuit: To make and LED flasher.

- Components used in the circuit (listing with basic definitions): LED - device that emits light in circuit. Learing Lab - device that allows you to build a circuit. Wire - Allows electricity to flow through the circuit. Integrated Cicuit - Allows proper function of the circuit. Resistors - Keeps the current at a low and steady rate. Capacitor - Directs current in a different direction.

- Explanation of difficulties encountered while creating the circuit: The breadboard on the learning lab is very small, and making sure the wires and resistors are put in the right lace is difficult. Also, if the cicuit doesn't work, the only way to fix it is to go through the entier process of reading the directions and putting every little wire in the right spot.

Name of Circuit - 555 Black Box circuit
- Function of the circuit: To emit a noise through the speaker.

- Components used in the circuit (listing with basic definitions): Wire - Allows electricity to flow through the circuit. Learing Lab - device that allows you to build a circuit. Integrated Cicuit - Allows proper function of the circuit. Resistors - Keeps the current at a low and steady rate. Capacitor - Directs current in a different direction.

- Explanation of difficulties encountered while creating the circuit: The breadboard on the learning lab is very small, and making sure the wires and resistors are put in the right lace is difficult. Also, if the cicuit doesn't work, the only way to fix it is to go through the entier process of reading the directions and putting every little wire in the right spot. This circuit is also more complicated than the LED flasher, so it was harder.

Name of Circuit - Binary-to-decimal keypad
- Function of the circuit: To make an LED interface display a number.

- Components used in the circuit (listing with basic definitions): LED - device that emits light in circuit. Learing Lab - device that allows you to build a circuit. Wire - Allows electricity to flow through the circuit. Integrated Cicuit - Allows proper function of the circuit.

- Explanation of difficulties encountered while creating the circuit: The breadboard on the learning lab is very small, and making sure the wires and resistors are put in the right lace is difficult. Also, if the cicuit doesn't work, the only way to fix it is to go through the entier process of reading the directions and putting every little wire in the right spot. In this circuit, you use more springs, which makes it even more complicated.
