Resistors – part 2

We already gave you an introduction into the matter of resistors last week. Today, we will tell you about the different kinds of resistors: The first special resistor is the LDR, it´s a resistor that changes its resistance depending on the light intensity. This means that it doesn´t change mechanically, e.g. by pressing a button, […]

Resistor for dummies

At first, resistor sounds like a not wanted property but in reality it’s a compelling characteristic. Each body or object has a specific resistance. A piece of wire has a relatively low resistance which is why it conducts electricity quite well. With the help of resistors, the current flow can be manipulated or you can […]

Students working with bricks

We had a group of students visiting from the Product Design Department of the Berlin University of Applied Science in our store this week. The six students and two professors were especially interested in Arduino. First, however, they wanted to learn more about the basics of electronics and decided to do the “electronics for beginners” […]
