THE TEACHING NOTES

BULK BUY DISCOUNT FOR KITS

If you would like more information on any of our products please contact us:

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Our teaching notes are supplied on a CD so you can print them for student handouts. The booklet is typically 24 pages in length and covers activities from the design brief to evaluation.

There are work sheets on manufacturing an enclosure, the build instructions for the project, information on debugging the project kit and a description of how it works. All in all a wealth of information, which you can choose from to make your lesson planning easier.

THE PCBs

Our PCBs use an industry standard FR4 quality board, manufactured using a lead free finish. We try to make the PCBs easy to assemble by providing component identification and ensuring that the components are well spread out.

On the underside of the board the pads are large for ease of soldering and again where possible well spaced from adjacent pads. A solder resist layer is present to ensure that the solder only goes on the pads, thus preventing unintentional solder shorts between tracks.

Light up decoration example

WHITE LED TORCH PROJECT KIT

The LED torch uses a 5000 mCd ultra bright white LED. Power is supplied by an N size 12 volt battery, which is included in the kit. The torch comes complete with a slide on / off switch.

With just four parts the kit makes a great introduction to electronics.

‘LIGHT UP’ DECORATION PACK

The decoration is made by layering laser cut Perspex sheet. The centre piece uses clear Perspex illuminated by a colour changing LED. As the LED changes colour this can be seen in the edges of the plastic or in ‘etched / engraved’ sections. The design has been created so that the shape of the decoration can easily be altered by the student. Making it ideal for seasonal tasks such as Christmas, Easter, etc. The pack contains all the parts required to build ten of the kits (excluding Perspex). You will need a solid colour for the base and a sheet of clear for the part of the decoration that is ‘lit up’. See page 123 / 125.

STEADY HAND GAME PROJECT KIT (WITH LATCH)

The board has a buzzer that sounds momentarily when the loop makes contact with the wire. It also has an LED, which latches on when the buzzer sounds via the use of a thyristor. It then remains on so that even the briefest contact of the loop with the wire can be indicated. A push button is used to reset the LED.

Requires x3 AA batteries, available separately.

Requires a PP3 battery which is available separately.

WIRELESS STEADY HAND GAME

With this steady hand game the connection from the loop to the board is made by the body of the person using the game, hence why it is called a wireless steady hand game. If the loop touches the wire track then a buzzer sounds for about a second (no matter how brief the touch). The circuit uses a hex buffer IC to detect the change in resistance when contact it made and the same buffer IC with an RC network keeps the buzzer on for the given time.

The solid cable is supplied on a reel with the remaining parts being individually bagged.

TIMED NIGHT LIGHT PROJECT KIT

The colour changing LED on this kit turns on when it goes dark and stays on for a period of time. This makes a good night light and because the LED is only on for a small amount of time the batteries last much longer.

There is an on board trimmer to set the light level at which the LED turns on and another trimmer to set how long the LED stays on for. The maximum duration is about 30 minutes. When set to 15 minutes and activated once a night the batteries will last two months.

Requires x3 AA batteries, available separately.

This example of the solar garden light shows the great effects that can be achieved by using the light in an old jam jar. Students are asked to bring in an old jar from home. They then make a small hole in the lid to feed the wires through for the solar cell and glue it in place and weather proof it using hot melt glue.

The circuit board then sits in the bottom of the jar illuminating it. The butterfly shapes in this example are designed on CAD and then ‘stickers’ are cut from adhesive backed vinyl using a Craft Robocutter. These stickers are then placed on the jar, which is grit blasted to create the frosting. Finally the stickers are removed to leave the finished design.

SOLAR GARDEN LIGHT KIT

The solar garden light is an interesting project that uses sustainable energy to illuminate a white LED. During the day the solar panel charges an AA battery, then when it goes dark the board automatically switches from charging the battery to illuminating the LED. The solar panel is resin encapsulated and therefore waterproof. Students will need to make a waterproof enclosure for the rest of the parts. Alternatively the sustainability theme can be extended to reusability as the board has been shaped so that it will fit into an old jar.

The kit includes the rechargeable battery.

This kit is perfect for GCSE students needing to use a 555 timer in its astable mode, where it produces a square wave output. The frequency of the square wave is adjustable via the variable resistor. The board has a choice of two outputs. The logic output can be used to drive another IC or a speaker can be connected so the tone is heard (e.g. a door bell). The push button switch connects to the reset line such that the IC is only active when the button is pressed.

Requires x3 AA batteries and depending upon desired use a speaker, both available separately.

ALARM PROJECT KIT

The kit can be used to make a shed or room alarm. It is armed / disarmed by a hidden switch. Alarms are detected by a micro switch mounted onto a door. A timer provides an entry delay during which the system can be disarmed, whilst a separate timer silences the alarm after two minutes. Both of these timers are implemented via a 555 timer IC. The alarm can be further enhanced by using a simple key switch for arming / disarming or by adding a magnetic door contact to activate it. The board, battery pack & buzzer can be placed into a box designed by the student.

Requires x4 AA batteries, available separately.

KEY SWITCH

This simple key switch is a great addition to the alarm project. The switch is a SPST switch activated by the key, which can be removed in both positions.

Supplied with two keys

DOOR CONTACT

The door contact consists of a reed switch and magnet both housed in a plastic enclosure. The switch is closed circuit when the magnet is present and open circuit otherwise.

BATTERY TESTER PROJECT KIT

This kit has a single AA battery holder into which a battery can be placed, LEDs then illuminate to show the remaining capacity of the battery. The circuit uses a quad operational amplifier to provide a reference voltage and comparators to determine which LEDs should go on. This makes it a great kit for studying operational amplifiers.

Testing of the kit can be performed using an adjustable power supply, or with our circuit tester (consisting of an AA battery holder, variable resistor & crocodile clips).

TIMER PROJECT KIT

The timer project uses a dual 555 timer, which once started by pressing the button, illuminates an LED until the desired time out period has elapsed, when a buzzer is sounded. The duration of both the delay and buzzer sound period can be determined by the student and are easily adjusted by PCB mounted potentiometers. This allows the board to be used for a variety of applications, such as an egg timer or a timer for a game. (Max time period 200 seconds, max buzzer period 10 seconds)

RELAY BOARD KIT

This is a versatile board that can easily be configured via jumpers and trimmer potentiometers to do a range of tasks. Most sensors and switches can be connected to the input of the board and the trigger level set for the input device. This can be inverted if required, then there is the option to feed this straight to the relay or a timer of up to 25 minutes can be used. The board can run off any voltage from 4.5 to 6 volts. A datasheet that details what the board does and how to use it along with some worked examples can be downloaded from:

Suppose you want to detect if someone has walked in to a space and audibly sound this else where. Then you could use a PIR module, the relay board and a sounder to do this. The connections would be as follows:

PROGRAMMABLE PIC FRISBEE KIT

When thrown the Frisbee will produce a visual display created by the LEDs on the PCB. At the same time the board can also be programmed so that it will produce a sound or play a tune (requires the addition of piezo element buzzer, not included). When the Frisbee stops spinning the LEDs will turn off and the sound or tune will stop.

The kit requires a PICAXE chip (see page 48) and optionally a sounder.

SHOWER WATER SAVER TIMER KIT

This project is a nice way of getting students to think about how much water they are using and to do something about it when showering. When tipped up a four minute timer starts, this is shown by the blue LED flashing the number of minutes remaining every 10 seconds. i.e. it flashes four times to start with, then three, two, one until the four minutes is up. The kit is fairly straight forward to make due to the low part count and is supplied with a pre-programmed processor. If used daily by all members of a family the coin cell will last a number of years. The tilt switch allows for a completely enclosed case, which is required as the electronics are not waterproof.

The kit uses 2x CR2032 coin cells which are included.

The motor controller board can be used in two ways. You can use your PC flowchart software to write the control application for an 18 pin PIC, or by fitting two more LEDs and after downloading some free basic software on to the board you can use it as a standalone sequence controller. This allows students to first pick up the basics of motor direction control, using the sequence controller. Then using the same hardware they are now familiar with, move on to more advanced flowchart control.

The board has four inputs, complete with test switches and four outputs complete with debug LEDs. The outputs can drive two motors with forward and reverse control or four motors with on / off control. However please note the outputs work in pairs and this means that when using four motors, it is not possible to drive motors 1&2 at the same time, nor can outputs 3&4 be driven at the same time.

The kit is compatible with most educational PICs & software. Processor not included. Self assembly.

8 PIN PIC DEVELOPMENT AND PROJECT BOARDS

These boards have been designed to complement each other. The larger development board (once built) can be used as a starting point for a project by attaching inputs and outputs to the board via the terminal blocks. The PIC software can then be developed and the complete solution tested without using a soldering iron. Once students are happy with their design they can transfer the design to the project board, soldering their chosen peripherals into the board. The development board can be reused on future projects. You can connect any device to the outputs of the board including LEDs, sounders, motors etc. The teaching notes for this project include a number of possible projects including: a decision maker, traffic light, timer, quiz buzzer, alarm and a timed fan. Both boards are supplied in kit form.

PICAXE DOWNLOAD CABLES

The PICAXE Programming Editor software downloads programs into the PICAXE chip via a very low cost serial or USB download cable. No programmer is required – you simply place the matching ‘stereo’ socket on the project board and then download the program directly into the PICAXE chip. Cable available in serial or USB format.

PICAXE MICROBOT PICAXE M2 SERIES CHIPS

The PICAXE microbot is an exciting introduction to robotics and can be fully customised to give different input sensors and output devices. Microbot use a unique patented ‘microbric’ connector technology that means the robot can be easily reconfigured with just an Allen key. The microbot chassis pack requires no soldering - just assemble the parts using the Allen key supplied.

The M2 series PICAXE chips are more powerful than the regular M chips. The pins can be configured to give the number of inputs and outputs your project needs. The parts allow for more complex programs to be written as they have more memory and more variables. There is support for additional peripherals such as elapsed time, internal temperature reading, serial comms interfacing and so on. The big change with the M2 series chips is that your software can run several flow charts simultaneously. The PICAXE Cyberpet, alarm & dice are now supplied with an 08M2LE which is a lite edition of the 08M2 chip. It is more powerful than the 08 chip previously supplied with the kit, but only has one start and less memory than the full 08M2. Note: If the chip you plan on using isn’t listed in your software you will need to upgrade the software.

STEM BUGGY

The super capacitor buggy is a fun but serious STEM learning resource. It involves a short activity in which students investigate and make design decisions, which affect the distance travelled by a model buggy. The buggy is designed for bench top use and can travel 1m - 10m on a full charge. The range depends on the efficiency decisions and actions students make. Charging takes one minute using a USB lead connected to a PC.

- Laser cut Perspex racer chassis.Kit contents (Self assembly):

SUPER CAPACITOR CHARGE CONTROLLER KIT

This board provides a rechargeable power source that can be used to power a project. It works by charging up a 1F super capacitor when it is connected to a USB port. Two LEDs are used to show when the capacitor is charged (this takes about 1 minute).

Once charged the USB lead can be removed and the board used as a power source. The power connection is via two solder connections. When switched on the board provides power until the capacitor is empty. The length of time this takes will depend upon your application circuit (from a few seconds to ten minutes or more).

Supplied in kit form.

- A super capacitor charge control board that is charged from the USB port.- All the pulleys, wheels, axles and motor required to complete the racer.

CONDUCTIVE THREAD

£7.071+

£6.244+Code

2722DescriptionConductive thread - 45m bobbin

Conductive thread is perfect for hand sewing and can be used on the bottom bobbin of a sewing machine (this will require the thread to be wound on to the smaller bottom bobbin first). Reels of conductive thread are, 50 yards/ 45m. Conductive thread can be used like conventional sewing thread, however it electrically conducts allowing electronics to be integrated into textiles.

CONDUCTIVE FABRIC

£9.001+Description

Conductive fabric – ripstop – 305 x 330mm£20.00Conductive fabric - stretch - 305 x 330mm

Code27162717

Conductive fabric can be used to make a soft switch. Only a small amount is required per switch, so this sheet goes a long way. This is a conductive knit fabric for use in e-textiles, similar to a nylon ripstop material. It is highly conductive with a low surface resistivity.

ELECTRO-FASHION FLASHER CONTROLLER, LEDS & THREAD

This unit offers a simple way of adding 'flashing' white LEDs to a textiles project. The unit is programmed with a number of flashing patterns that are selected by a push button on the main PCB. Pressing this button cycles through the following patterns: all LEDs constantly on, slow flash (all on, all off), fast flash (each in turn), and turned off. The device features auto off, which turns the unit off after 30 minutes to preserve battery life. Depending upon flash pattern the battery lasts for approximately two days of constant use.

This kit is supplied ‘pre-built’ so requires no soldering. Each kit comprises three small PCB’s. The largest of the three PCB’s holds an LED plus the control electronics, battery and a push button. On both of the remaining PCB’s there is an LED, which are connected to the main board with conductive thread.

Includes a CR2032 battery.Includes approximately 2m of conductive thread.

Dimensions: L34 x W20 x H9mm.

ELECTRO-FASHION LIGHT SENSORThis board allows LEDs to be turned on automatically when it is dark. On one side of the board is the coin cell holder, which takes a CR2032 coin cell as well as a small on off slide switch. On the other side of the board is the light sensor.

The design means that it is possible to cut a small hole in the front of the product for the light sensor to detect the light level, whilst also being able to get to the back of the board to change the battery and turn the board off. When turned off any connected LEDs will be off. When turned on the connected LEDs will be off in day light but come on in the dark.

FREE TO DOWNLOAD RESOURCES

To help people new to Electro-Fashion get started we have worked with Julie Boyd to develop some free

online resources. These give detailed step by step explanations of how to make a product.

There are guides on adding a LED to a hat (both a standard LED and a slim line LED), making a zippi doll

with light up eyes & adding three LEDs to a bag. We are always working on more resources so it’s worth

keeping an eye on the website.

LED strips are very easy to use, but you need to make sure the power supply has sufficient capacity for the length of LED strips being used.

As all the colours of LED strips take about 400 mA per meter, the longer the length of strip the bigger the power supply has to be. To save you doing the maths below is a table showing the maximum length for each of the power supplies. We have even added a new wall mount power supply which is good for fixed installations of a couple of reels of LEDs.
