Project-In-A-Box: Coin Flip Circuit

Saturday, October 15, 2022 at 2 PM
University Community Branch Library
Free

Ever wanted to flip a coin, but all you had were electronic parts? With PiB's Coin Flip Circuit kit, you can simulate the action of flipping a coin with just an electronic circuit! With the press of a button, the coin will "flip" as the flashing of LEDs alternates, settling on either "heads" or "tails". Creating a variation of a multivibrator circuit, participants will gain practical knowledge of components such as resistors, capacitors, and transistors. Participants are then taught to utilize this knowledge in changing the speed and duration of the LED flashes.

Kits are created by UC San Diego's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering student led organization, Project-In-A-Box.

This is an in-person workshop.
