GREAT applet for experimenting with circuits

You're welcome - I didn't either for security reasons, but this is the first applet I've run accross that makes it worth tuning on!!!

I've been playng with it for hours and have had several "A ha!" moments... amazing what you can learn with an applet like this.

The only down side that I see is that it doesn't warn you of "short circuit" states all the time, you have to double check your work before implementing any circuit, but so far I've put several circuits together based on what I've done with this applet and they all work exacty as stated.

settig the forward voltage for the LED at 1A is kinda tricky, but barring little things like that, this applet can get you 99% of the way to finishing a circuit design!

to "immitate" a picaxe pin, I just use a switch connected to +5, or to a ground. While this won't help set a complicated picaxe circuit, it WILL help you set up all that alterior circuitry that goes WITH the picaxe.

priceless!
