Learn how to build and simulate Arduino projects using Tinkercad Corcuits – a free, browser-based platform that lets you create and test electronics virtually. This beginner-friendly course walks you through setting up your virtual Arduino, connecting components like LEDs, button and resistors and writing code using blocks or text-based programming. Perfect for those who want to explore Arduino without buying physical components.
What is Tinkercad Circuits?
Tinkercad Circuits is a free online tool by Autodesk that allows users to simulate electronic circuits, including Arduino projects directly in a web browser.
Do i need to download any software to use Tinkercad?
No. Tinkercad is 100% web-based. All you need is a browser and internet connection.
Is Tinkercad suitable for beginners with no electronics or coding background?
Yes! Tinkercad is beginner-friendly and offers block-based programming as well as Arduino code for easy learning.
Can i simulate real Arduino code in Tinkercad?
Yes. Tinkercad supports actual Arduino C++ code and you can test it using the "Start Simulation" button.
What kind of components can i use in the simulator?
You can use LEDs, resistors, buttons, buzzers, potentiometer, sensors, servo motors and more.
Do i need to own physical Arduino board to follow this course?
No. One of the main advantages of Tinkercad Circuits is that you can learn and test your code without any physical hardware.
Is Tinkercad free to use?
Yes. Tinkercad is completely free. You just need to sign upfor an Autodesk account.
Can i share or export my Tinkercad circuit projects?
Yes. Tinkercad allows you to share your design via links and export code for use on a real Arduino later.
Is it possible to switch between block-based and text-based code?
Yes. You can start with blocks and convert it to Arduino code at any time to see how they relate.
Can this be used in a classroom setting for teaching electronics or Arduino?
Absolutely! It's ideal for student and educators, especially in STEM and robotics education.
