New cards
how to use bands to measure resistance
first band represents first digit, second band represents second digit, third band represents multiplier (multiply the number by it), fourth band represents the tolerance
2
New cards
how to create Req=200 using only 100 ohm
connect 2 100 ohm resistors in series
3
New cards
how to create Req=150 using only 100 ohm
connect 1 100 ohm resistor in series with 2 100 ohm resistors in parallel
4
New cards
how to create Req=25 using only 100 ohm
connect 4 100 ohm resistors in parallel
5
New cards
why is the actual resistor value different from the theoretical value
the theoretical value is assuming ideal conditions, which is not always possible
6
New cards
how to calculate the minimum resistance value needed to achieve pmax
pmax > vi = v^2/r plug in pmax and v to solve for r
7
New cards
does your calculated resistance value meet the current restraint of 10 mA
using the r value calculated using pmax and v, r has to be greater than 200, we chose 220 pmax = vi = i^2*r plug in pmax and the measured value of r to find i we found that our resistance does not meet the current restraint, which can be fixed by raising the resistance
8
New cards
when is pmax achieved
when Rab=Rth

New cards
does our vout values match the theoretical values
we changed our range, so yes it does match, if we didn't change it, our range was too small so our vout would not match
