![WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY – PHILIPPINES<br />College of Technology<br />Cabanatuan City<br />NAME: MARK KEVIN A. UMAYAMDATE: 08 – 19 - 11 <br />SCHEDULE: Friday, 3:00pm – 6:00pm<br />EXPERIMENT NO. 2<br />ON or OFF Diode? – Voltage Test<br />OBJECTIVE:<br />How to determine an ON or OFF diode using the voltage test technique.<br />MATERIALS:<br />1 Variable DC source or equivalent battery supply<br />1 5.6k resistor, ½ watt<br />1 6.8k resistor, ½ watt<br />1 27k resistor, ½ watt<br />1 1N4001 diode<br />2 resistors (values assigned by instructor per group)<br />1 breadboard<br />connecting wires<br />DISCUSSION:<br />In determining whether the diode is ON or OFF by Voltage Test, assume that the diode under consideration is OFF and replace it with an open circuit. Analyze the circuit to find the anode voltage (V1) and the cathode voltage (V2). If the anode voltage (V1) is less than the cathode voltage (V2), the diode is reverse biased (Vd < 0), and your initial assumption is correct, the diode is OFF. If the anode voltage (V1) is greater than the cathode voltage (V2), the diode is forward biased and your initial assumption that the diode is OFF is wrong; the diode is ON and V1 is equal to V2.<br />PROCEDURE:<br />,[object Object]](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/exp2-110923084410-phpapp02/85/Exp2-1-320.jpg)
