I was able to use almost only the schematics this week and felt more comfortable with the whole wiring and building a circuit process. main problems are still wiring cores to the wrong hole but I'm able to debug it faster now.
I also got a better understanding of the code for the Arduino but I don't feel like I can write my own code yet, just able to play with the values and have an understanding of what they're referring to.
In the part where I was connecting the Arduino to the speker I got confused because the 100 Ohms resistor were in a completely different color (and for some reason I though they have fixed colors. I used the Multimeter to check their resistance.
Later on I checked the sensor's analog input range to see that it matches the code.
Afterwards I made sure the sensor analog value is constrained
And checked the speaker is working.
And then connected the voltage regulator to make the speaker louder:
Then I connected the servo motor. Again I made sure the sensor value matches the code.
I was wiring the breadboard mostly according to the schematic to practice it and I think it made me do a mistake of connecting the wrong analog output which took me to long to debug. but finally I did!
