💡Slide Switch Circuit

Okay, we have our push button switch

here with our LED

and it turns on. Now, we're going to

switch our push button switch

with a slide switch. You can see it has

three pins or three terminals on it. I

need to line up the center pin with the

yellow jumper wire like so.

So, I have

the center pin

of the slide switch in line with my

yellow jumper wire

which is attached to the positive power

supply. Now I need another jumper wire,

this other yellow one. And I need to

place it to my right side terminal of

the switch

to our resistor lead here. So right now

we can see the LED is not on

the switch. If I zoom in a little bit

here,

the switch,

the slider is currently to the left side

here. So, right now there's a pin. The

left pin is not connected to anything.

The center pin is connected

to this yellow jumper wire which is

connected to the power or the positive

power supply. And then we have the right

pin of the slider switch connected to

this yellow jumper wire which is

connected to this leg of the resistor.

So now if I

were to switch the slider over

to the right side, we see the LED comes

on.
