Inputs
There are 2 on the front of the micro:bit that you can press.
What is buttons? (A and B)
Additional light to attach to the micro:bit.
What is a LED?
The drawer that contains blocks used for the Buzzer.
What is music?
Data represented as either yes/no or true/false.
The two kinds of these are conditional and linear.
What is a flowchart?
Used to detect how hard you touch the sensor.
What is a pressure sensor?
A row of lights attached with multiple alligator clips.
What is an LED Board?
Drawer containing blocks to make my code do the same thing more than once.
What is loops?
Data that ranges on a continuous scale.
Where inputs get their power from.
What is 3V?
Used to detect how much light it is receiving.
What is a photocell resistor?
or
What is a light sensor?
The output that makes noise.
What is a Buzzer?
For PLTW, you had to import the code to the coding website for these kinds of devices.
What are outputs?
An ordered set of instructions that are used to carry out a task.
What is an algorithm?
Where outputs get their power from.
What is GND?
What is a flex sensor?
Contains a motor and uses both power sources.
What is a servo?
The drawer that contains code blocks that you had to make.
What are variables?
To identify bugs or errors in computer hardware or programs and fix them.
What is debug?
Pin 0, Pin 1, and Pin 2
What are GPIO pins?
Used to detect how hard you shake it, like in rock, paper, scissors.
What is an accelerometer?
The 2 outputs we used at the same time.
What are LED and Buzzer?
On the coding website it shows you the micro:bit. When answer questions for PLTW about the micro:bit on the coding website, it is also referred to as this.
What is the emulator?
A small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor, memory, and programmable inputs and outputs.
What is a microcontroller?
or
What is a micro:bit?
Pins that should never be directly connected.
What are 3V and GND?
