Description: Building circuits with logic Bits is essentially the equivalent of physical programming. Logic Bits create rules for your circuit to follow, giving you more ability to create interesting and complex interactions. This set includes 15 bits and the Getting Started with littleBits book from Make. 6 - w1 wireExtra wires are always helpful as you build and experiment with more complex circuits. 1 - w2 branchThe branch gives you more options for connecting your Bits. It lets you send the same signal to up to three other outputs, oriented in three different directions. The branch is a great way to raise the level of complexity in any project. 1 - w3 double ORThe double OR Bit is a logic gate with two inputs and one output. In order for the double OR gate to output an ON signal, the first input, the second input, or both inputs need to be ON. When both inputs are OFF (inactive), the output is OFF. 1 - w4 double ANDThe double AND Bit is a logic gate with 2 inputs and one output. In order for the AND gate to output an ON signal, both inputs need to be ON at the same time. When this happens, you are able to activate any output module like an LED, a DC motor, or a buzzer. 1 - w10 inverterThe inverter (or NOT) Bit is a simple logic Bit with one input and one output. It sends out the opposite of whatever it receives: send it an ON signal, and the inverter changes it to an OFF signal, or vice versa. 1 - w15 NORThe NOR Bit is a logic gate with two inputs and one output. NOR stands for NOT OR, meaning the output of the OR module is inverted. With the NOR Bit, the output is ON when both inputs are OFF, or false. If either or both inputs are ON, the output will be OFF, or false. 1 - w16 NANDThe NAND Bit is a logic gate with two inputs and one output. NAND is short for NOT AND which is the combination of an AND gate where the output is inverted. The NAND only outputs an OFF signal when both of the inputs are ON, or true. If both inputs are OFF, the output signal will be ON. 1 - w17 XORThe XOR Bit is a logic gate with with two inputs and one output. In order for the XOR gate to output an ON signal, either one of its inputs, but not both, are ON. The XOR is called the "exclusive OR" Bit because it is similar to the OR gate, but only outputs a signal when one input is ON at a time. 2 - w19 splitThe split lets you connect a single Bit to two other Bits. If you place an input before the split, it will control the two outputs at once, like a single light sensor controlling two motors to spin car wheels. The flexible wires on the split also allow you to place your Bits further apart and position them how you like. 1 - "Make: Getting Started with littleBits" by Ayah Bdeir and Matt RichardsonGetting Started with littleBits by Ayah Bdeir and Matt Richardson is a comprehensive guide to littleBits electronics. Not sure how to use your new Arduino Bit or set the timeout? This handbook will become your go-to guide as you explore the littleBits platform and create your own inventions. With dozens of curated projects to supplement the Bit explanations, it's perfect for beginners, educators, and anyone who wants to dive deeper into the littleBits platform and learn how to use each individual Bit.
