Introduction The Micro:bit board is a compact and powerful educational microcontroller designed to inspire creativity and programming learning in young people. Launched in 2015 by the BBC in the UK as part of the “Make It Digital” initiative, the Micro:bit has quickly become a popular tool worldwide for teaching programming and computer science. The Micro:bit measures around 4 centimetres by 5 centimetres and comes with a variety of features that make it an ideal choice for programming beginners.In this course, we’ll look at how to connect a LED to your Micro:bit card: To simulate our circuit, we used Tinkercad. Here is our program in block form:We turn on our LED on pin 1 for half a second, then turn it off for the same amount of time: Here’s what we get by simulating on Tinkercad :
