i5 SLIDE DIMMER
MEET THE BIT
Slide this dimmer back and forth to control your circuit.
As you slide it up, more signal goes to the Bits that follow,
brightening lights, speeding up motors, and raising the
volume on your buzzer.
MINI-CHALLENGE
Can you invent something with the slide dimmer that waves
a flag back and forth? How could you change the speed
it waves?

HOW IT WORKS
When the slider is all the
way to the left, it's sending
an off or 0 volt signal.
When the slider is all the
way to the right, it's sending
a 5 volt signal. The slider
can be positioned to send
any signal between 0 and
5 volts.
