About Your E-Blox
®
Circuit Blox™ Parts
motor are three coils of wire with many loops. If a large
electric current ows through the loops, the magnetic
effects become concentrated enough to move the coils.
The motor has a magnet inside, so as the electricity
moves the coils to align them with the permanent
magnet, the shaft spins.
Some types of electronic components can be super-
miniaturized, allowing many thousands of parts to t into
an area smaller that your ngernail. These “integrated
circuits” (ICs) are used in everything from simple
electronic toys to the most advanced computers.
The three-in-one (11) modules contain specialized
sound-generation ICs and other supporting components
(resistors, capacitors, and transistors) that are always
needed with them. This was done to simplify the
connections you need to make to use them. The pin
descriptions are given here for those interested, see the
projects for connection examples:
Three-in-One
T1, T2 - control inputs
SP1 - speaker – connection
SP2 - speaker + connection
I/O1 - music select
I/O2 - space sound select
(+) - power from batteries
(–) - power return to batteries
