This week's group assignment involved getting our feet wet with some test equipment. Diana showed us how to use multimeters, oscilloscopes, and regulated power supplies.

Board Design

Initially, I began my board design by attempting to hook up a light sensor to my microntroller and turn a servo whenever the level of light detected passes a certain threshold. This is supposed to tie into my final project, in which my lotus lamp needs to open when light levels are low and close when they are high. However, this is my first time working with electronics ever, and so I needed to do something a bit simpler just to start to get a base level understanding of what I'm working with. So, I switched my design to the very simple one I made in Wokwi two weeks ago: push button, light turns on; push button again, light turns off. Should be simple. Right?
