The micro:bit is a tool that allows you to explore the world of technology in a fun and
interactive way. With its built-in LED display and buttons, you can create a variety of

projects, from showing images to making simple animations and controlling actions.

INTRODUCTION TO LEDS

LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are small electronic lights that glow when current flows
through them. On the micro:bit, these LEDs are arranged in a grid format. This allows

you to show different pictures, words or even fun patterns by turning the lights on
or off in different places.

The micro:bit’s LED Display

The micro:bit has a grid made up of 25 tiny LED lights. These lights are arranged in
5 rows and 5 columns, so it looks like a grid of squares.

How LEDs Work on the micro:bit

The LEDs on the micro:bit light up when you run a program. Each LED can be turned

ON or OFF using code. When several LEDs light up together, they form patterns,
shapes, letters or images on the display.
