Datasheet
can expect to read a value of 1023 when in its upright position and 0 when it is titled.
Module description: this module features a Tilt Sensor, a signal amplifier, the standard TinkerKit
3pin connector, a green LED that signals that the module is correctly powered and a yellow LED
that lights up when a connection is made (the sensor is upright).
This module is a SENSOR. The connector is an OUTPUT which must be connected to one of the
INPUT connectors on the TinkerKit Shield.

The Thermistor is a resistor whose resistance varies significantly (more
than in standard resistors) with temperature.
Output: This module's output approches 5v as the temperature increases.
As the temperature decreases, it approaches 0V. When connected to an
input on the Arduino using the TinkerKit Shield, expect to read values
between 0 and 1023
(NB: any changes in the values will be slow and may not vary a great
deal).
Module Description: This module features a Thermistor, a signal
amplifier, the standard TinkerKit 3pin connector, a green LED that signals
that the module is correctly powered and a yellow LED whose brightness changes according to the
temperature.
This module is a SENSOR. The connector is an OUTPUT which must be connected to one of the
INPUT connectors on the TinkerKit Shield.

A Potentiometer is a commonly used variable resistor. Turning the knob,
you vary the output voltage between 0 and 5V. This value is sent through
the middle pin of the pot.
Output: This module outputs 5v when turned in one direction, and 0v
when turned in the opposite way. When connected to an input on the
Arduino using the TinkerKit Shield, you can expect to read values between
0 and 1023.
Module Description: This module features a 4k7 Ohm linear
potentiometer, a signal amplifier, the standard TinkerKit 3pin connector, a
green LED that signals that the module is correctly powered and a yellow
LED whose brightness changes according to the position of the
potentiometer.
This module is a SENSOR. The connector is an OUTPUT which must be
connected to one of the INPUT connectors on the TinkerKit Shield.

A Linear Potentiometer is a commonly used variable resistor. It can
often be found as a volume controller on radios and TVs. By moving the
slider you can vary the output voltage between 0 and 5V. This value is sent
through the middle pin of the pot.
