To make a LED badge with basic through-hole components
- 3mm LEDs (Two)
- 100 Ohms Resistor (One)
- CR2032 3V coin cell battery (One)
- SPDT Slide Switch - EG1218 (DigiKey - EG1903-ND) (One)
- CR2032 Battery Holder PC PIN (DigiKey- BAT-HLD-001-THM-ND) (One)
- Clutch Tie-Tack Pin Back (pin size -4.5 mm in diameter) (One)
Time Required- Around 45 min
Steps-
Step 1-
Make sure you have all the parts
Step 2 Start with soldering the resistor. The direction doesnt matter
Step 3- Next, solder the LEDs, the direction of the LEDs should be as shown below-
Step 4 & 5 - Solder Battery holder followed by SPDT switch
Step 6- Test the circuit by sliding the CR2032 coincell into the battery holder. Positive side of the battery facing away from the board.
