Complete LED Circuit (w, w/o short):
{RESET, Expand, Zoom 12 and Center for display.}
Run the Simulation by clicking on the Yellow triangle with the letter "t" in it.
NOTE: At least one Ground MUST be connected to make the simulator work at all. The moving dots represent flowing electrons (ignore them for now).
Adjust the V supply from 2.5 V to 3.0 V to see the LED's light increase. This is done by clicking on the power source (a circle with - and + in it), then, clicking on the little "wrench" in the bottom left corner.
Then, increase V supply to beyond 3.1 V by dragging the control triangle OR clicking on the + sign (in the lower right corner). What happens?
Lower V supply back to 3.0 V. And, activate the Switch (on the right) by clicking on it. Notice the warning message:"Voltage source is shorted".
Click on the Switch again. Type the letter "T" to Toggle the Switch back to open (off).
Then, click anywhere in the Circuit Layout Area that is unused. And, type a " " (space) to continue running the Simulation.
