Questions to be Answered

  1. Suppose you set the voltage of the DC power supply to 5V. You connect it to a circuit and the voltage provided by the power supply drops to 3V. What happened?
  2. What is the ``resolution" of a digital display? Compare the resolution of the digital display on the front panel of the DC power supply to the display on the front panel of the multimeter. Why must you use the multimeter to set the DC supply to 0.75V?
  3. Suppose you set the function generator such that it produces a 1 kHz sinusoidal voltage with 5V peak-to-peak across a 25 load. What will be the peak-to-peak voltage displayed on the front panel of the function generator?
