Here is what you need to make a LED cube:ĥ12x LEDs (plus some extra for making mistakes!)Ħ4x resistors. You should also have patience and a generous amount of free time. We provide a fully functional program, ready to go) (We would recommend against building this as your very first electronics project.
With that said, there are still some things you should know before venturing out and building this rather large project.īasic electronics. And believe me, this makes it A LOT easier to do electronics! I went from only being able to build simple analog circuits, to being able to build almost anything!Ī digital circuit doesn't care if a resistor is 1k ohm or 2k ohm, as long as it can distinguish high from low. This completely changed my relationship with electronics. One resistor or capacitor with a slightly wrong value, and the circuit doesn't work.Ībout 4 years ago, I decided to give microcontrollers a try. The analog circuits failed over half the time even if i followed instructions. I've been doing electronics for a long time, and for years i struggled with analog circuits. However, we are dealing with digital electronics here, so everything is either on or off! At first glance this project might seem like an overly complex and daunting task.
