Material Detail

Using Ohm's Law to Build a Voltage Divider

Using Ohm's Law to Build a Voltage Divider

Students will design, build, and characterize one of the basic circuits of electricalengineering, the voltage divider. These circuits produce a wide range of output voltages and are building blocks for more complex circuits. Circuit design will emphasize the concepts of Ohm's Law and students will explore mathematical relationships of parallel and series resistors. Students will demonstrate their design efforts by building prototype circuits and using test measurement tools to confirm their predictions.
