MEET THE BIT
The bargraph shows you how much signal the Bit is
receiving with a display of five light-emitting diodes (LEDs)
in different colors. Try it with a dimmer to make your own
adjustable lamp.

HOW IT WORKS
The bargraph uses five LEDs
to turn electricity into light.
Each LED on the board
needs a certain amount of
signal in order to light up. As
you increase the signal sent
to the bargraph, more LEDs
will shine.
