Component values and references in PCB Design - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to assign the correct value to the resistor component.

PCB Design

resistor.value = [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"5V"

B"220"

C"10k"

D"100uF"

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using voltage or capacitance values for resistor value.

The resistor value is typically given in ohms or kilo-ohms. "10k" means 10 kilo-ohms, which is a common resistor value.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to set the reference designator for a capacitor component.

PCB Design

capacitor.reference = [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"D4"

B"L2"

C"R1"

D"C3"

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using resistor or diode reference designators for capacitors.

Capacitors usually have reference designators starting with 'C' followed by a number, like "C3".

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to correctly assign the value to an inductor component.

PCB Design

inductor.value = [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"10uH"

B"5V"

C"10k"

D"100"

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using resistor or voltage values for inductors.

Inductor values are given in henries, often microhenries (uH). "10uH" is a valid inductor value.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to assign the correct reference and value to a diode component.

PCB Design

diode.reference = [1]
diode.value = [2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"D1"

B"C1"

C"1N4148"

D"10k"

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using capacitor references or resistor values for diodes.

Diode reference designators start with 'D', like "D1". The value is usually the diode part number, such as "1N4148".

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to assign reference, value, and footprint to a transistor component.

PCB Design

transistor.reference = [1]
transistor.value = [2]
transistor.footprint = [3]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"Q2"

B"BC547"

C"TO-92"

D"C2"

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using capacitor references or resistor values for transistors.

Transistor references start with 'Q', like "Q2". The value is the transistor part number, e.g., "BC547". The footprint is the physical package, such as "TO-92".
