This tutorial shows you how to build a very simple circuit which lights up a single Light Emitting Diode (LED).

Componenct:
1 pcs 1k resistor (1000 ohm, brown - black - red)
1 pcs 5mm red LED

You will also need:
A breadboard
Breadboard wire links
9V battery (nine volt battery)
Battery clip

How the Breadboard and Circuit Works
The red lines in photo below show how the breadboard is connected internally. The figure shows only some of the vertical connections, they repeat as shown.

The top and bottom parts of the breadboard are identical and have four horizontal connecting strips. The middle of the breadboard has vertical connecting strips separated by a horizontal channel in the middle.

Each individual red line or connecting strip is electrically isolated from every other strip.

Any component lead that is plugged into a hole or "tie point" of the breadboard will be connected to whatever is plugged into a hole of the same connecting strip as marked in red in the photo.
