Install the PICAXE Programming Editor software from the Snap Circuits Micro Software CD. (You may substitute the Snap Circuits USB to DB9 Converter and the Snap Circuits DB9 Programming Cable if you do not have the USB Programming Cable) Snap Circuits 8 Pin Socket U14 With PICAXE 08m Installed To build my Roverbot, I used parts from three different sets, the Snap Circuits Motion Detector, Snap Circuits Rover, and Snap Circuits Micro, but you can probably order all the parts separately (from Elenco or C & S Sales). You can also look at the pictures to get an idea of what it will look like when you are done. This simple circuit will switch a light bulb on and off.īuild the circuit as shown in the diagram. The photos are what the circuit, will look like: three electronic components, the battery holder, the slide switch, and a lamp are connected together with snap conductors on the plastic base grid. As you can see the projects in the manuals are self explanatory. The first image is what a project in the manual page looks like. Because the electronic symbol is printed on each electronic component, once the project is completed, it will look almost exactly like a printed electronic schematic. The illustrations for each project look almost exactly like what the components will look on the base grid when finished. All the kits include manuals printed in color with easy to follow diagrams to assemble the projects. There are several Snap Circuits kits that range from a few simple circuits to the largest kit that includes 750 electronic projects. ![]() The components also snap onto a 10 X 7 plastic base grid, which is analogous to a solderless breadboard. They snap together with what appear to be ordinary clothing snaps-hence the name Snap Circuits. Each electronic component has the electronic schematic symbol and a label printed onto its plastic case that is color coded for easy identification. Snap Circuits by Elenco is an educational toy that teaches electronics with solderless snap-together electronic components.
