Insert a sketch of the circuit used for measuring the V-I characteristics here:

|

Label the voltage across the component, the current through the component and the measured variables. Indicate how the required variables relate to the measured variables.

Record your measurements. Transfer them to Matlab and generate the V-I characteristic plot for each component. Insert these as pictures into the table on the next page.

V-I Characteristics (A -dc, B - dc)

|

|

V-I Characteristics (C - dc)

|

V-I Characteristics (A – ac magnitude, A – ac phase)

|

|

V-I Characteristics (B – ac magnitude, B – ac phase)

|

|

Are dc V-I Characteristics of C linear? Yes / No. Insert appropriate plots here.

|

|

Write one paragraph on the possible identity and role of each of the 3 components A, B and C in typical application circuits based on their V-I characteristic.

|

Attach any working such as tables of measurements and calculations at the end. Scan them if they are hand written. Submit the document as one pdf file or Word document via Blackboard using the link appropriate to your laboratory session. Use the following file naming convention such that it is easier for your tutor to sort the reports and mark them.

Lab<labnumber>Session<sessionnumber>Group<groupnumber>.pdf

For example, Lab1Session10Group16.pdf

Your session number is given in the week by week study guide depending on which day and time slot it is in. Your group number is assigned by the tutor(s) in attendance. The laboratory...
