Getting Started
This guide walks you through creating your first circuit in Tebemo — from signing up to running a simulation.
1. Create an account
Go to the Tebemo website and sign up with your email address or use Sign in with Google. If you sign up with email, you'll receive a verification link to confirm your account.
2. Open the dashboard
After signing in, you land on My Page — your personal dashboard. This is where you manage all your circuit boards and component lists.
3. Create a new board
Click the New Board button in the top bar. Enter a name for your circuit (e.g., "LED Circuit") and optionally add a description. Click Create to open the editor.
4. Add components
In the editor, click the Add menu in the top toolbar. Components are organized into categories:
| Category | Components |
|---|---|
| Sources | Battery, Ground, Sine Generator, Square Generator |
| Passive | Resistor, Rheostat, Capacitor, Inductor, Transformer |
| Active | Diode, LED, Transistor (NPN/PNP), MOSFET (N/P), Optocoupler, Relay |
| Switches | Push Button, Toggle Switch, SPDT Switch, Multi-Position Switch |
| Outputs | Bulb, Ammeter, Voltmeter |
Click a component to place it on the canvas. You can also add Junctions to create connection points.
5. Connect components
Hover over a component's terminal (the small circles at the ends). Click and drag to another component's terminal to create a wire connection.
6. Configure properties
Click on any component to open its properties panel. Here you can set values like resistance, voltage, capacitance, and other parameters specific to that component type. Each component has realistic, detailed properties you can customize.
7. Save your work
Your circuit saves automatically at a regular interval (configurable in Settings). You can also save manually via Project > Save.
8. Run a simulation
Click the Simulate button in the top-right corner of the editor. The simulation view opens with:
- Play/Pause and Reset controls
- Current flow visualization — animated particles showing current direction and magnitude
- Component inspector — click any component to see real-time voltage, current, power, and temperature
- Environment controls — adjust temperature, airflow, and simulation speed
9. Share your circuit
Click the Share button in the editor header to:
- Generate a share link with view-only or edit permissions
- Send email invitations to specific people
