Project 09 - DIG3602C

This project accomplished making a pinwheel using a push button as the input and the activation of the motor as output. This project required a 9v volt battery and a transistor, since the high power flow needed by the motor complicates its usage more than other components that work fine with 5v of power. The most challenging aspect was building the circuit, which wasn’t too difficult itself. I’d rate the difficulty as a beginner because despite being number 9 this project was actually pretty straightforward. This one took me a little less than an hour to complete. The orientation of my breadboard usually adds about 5-10 min extra on my build times due to troubleshooting having to use different jumper wire lengths. I could see this modified to make a mini desk fan, making some diy fan blades instead of the pinwheel that came with the kit.
