In this category you’ll find an Arduino Uno R3 and an ATtiny. Breadboards are not necessary for connecting components (you can just draw wires between them), but they can be useful when planning a real-life breadboard layout. Three different breadboard sizes are available. The AA/AAA batteries has some configuration parameters, such as how many batteries you want in series. PowerĪ category for batteries: 9 V, 1.5 V AA/AAA and 3 V coin cell. This category has 19 different output-related goodies such as LEDs, motors and displays.

All of the code is generated by the single blue and purple block. A circuit connecting an ultrasonic distance sensor to an Arduino. During simulation you can manipulate these sensors in real time to simulate input. These range from simple buttons and switches to more complex sensors, such as distance, motion and environmental sensors. Here you’ll find 18 different components related to system inputs.
Every component except the regular diode has basic configurable parameters. Here you’ll find a resistor, two types of capacitors, two types of diodes and an inductor. This is the category for passive components. The component library is larger than we expected, and sorted into different categories. Makers and DIYers who are new to embedded electronics can use this to learn about embedded systems, plan their next project or even generate their actual Arduino code (more on that later). We can imagine that this can be used in pre-university education for introducing students to electronics and coding in a virtual low-effort, low-risk and low-cost environment. Many beginners in embedded electronics may find TC as a nice tool for different purposes. TC is free to use (you do need an Autodesk account) and runs directly in your web browser. The simulations have some fun animations and sounds and, every component is nicely depicted. Everything has a very intuitive and visual interface and it’s easy to just dive into it and start tinkering with a circuit. In TC you can hook a wide array of electrical components together, program an Arduino and simulate analog and digital behavior. This is not a review, merely a first impression of TC.
TC actually has a lot going for it, and we’ll look at different aspects of it in this blog post. The Arduino code interface can be viewed further down. A very simple circuit in TC with only a potentiometer and a servo hooked up to an Arduino Uno. Recently, we became aware of something called Tinkercad Circuits (“TC” henceforth), which is more aimed towards electronic circuits and Arduino coding rather than mechanical design, while still keeping the “for-beginners” profile. This is a free CAD-platform for beginners which is very easy to use, but doesn’t have many features. We have written about Tinkercad on our blog before.
