This project – the ANIMATED LED DISC is an Add-on project that is designed to be used with PAT’S 14M2 MICROCONTROLLER.
It is aimed at expanding the students’ knowledge and experience of programming that was introduced by building the microcontroller. This kit replaces the 10 LEDs supplied in the original kit, by making a mountable display that has 10 arms (6 LEDs per arm).
The kit consists of an On-Off switch and 60 LEDs in 5 different colours, to be arranged in 10 rows. When the disc has been completed the Microcontroller can be programmed to have each row illuminate separately, flash through the rows in sequence or however the designer chooses to program it.
Soldering Required: Yes
Hours to Construct: 4 - 10
Hours to Programme: 1 - 4
Components included: Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, PCBs
Level: Introductory Programming

Prototype illustrated is one of several possible outcomes.
IMPORTANT:
TECHNOLOGY KIT CONTENTS. Our kits contain all the electrical, electronic and mechanical components needed to build the device (only). The teacher supplies readily available material for wiring, making body parts, etc. – NO BODY PARTS OR WIRES ARE INCLUDED in the kits. Each order includes comprehensive instructions / Teaching Unit.
A PICAXE download cable (PICUCAB) IS REQUIRED to download programs from your computer & can be purchased from us.
All of the kits can also be controlled using an Infra-Red remote - by getting the Infra-Red Add-On kit.
