Title:
To Study and Implement Voltage Divider Circuit
Objective:
1. To design and construct a voltage divider circuit
2. To notice the application of the voltage divide circuit.

Theory:
A voltage divider is a simple circuit which turns a large voltage into a smaller one. Using just two series
resistors and an input voltage, we can create an output voltage that is a fraction of the input. Voltage
dividers are one of the most fundamental circuits in electronics. The Mathematical Equation is

Materials Required:
 Multimeter
 Experimental Kit: Electronic Trainer EES-21-305
 Resistor 100Ω, 150Ω
 Line Cords

Procedure:

1. Connect the circuit as shown in figure below.

2.
3. Referring to the circuit of fig 5, the total resistance (RT) in the series circuit is calculated from
RT= R1+ R2+R3.
4. Measure the total resistance from Digital Multimeter at points A and D,
5. Calculate the percentage error of total resistance:
𝐸
6. Calculate total current (I) of the circuit by using Ohm’s law (𝐼𝑇 = ),
𝑅𝑇
7. Measure the total current (IT) and the current through R1, R2 and R3 by using Digital Multimeter
8. Calculate the percentage error of total current:
9. Use Voltage Division Rule to calculate voltage drop across the resistors (R 1, R2 and R3),
 Measure the voltage drop across the resistors (R 1, R2 and R3) using Digital Multimeter.
10. Calculate the percentage error

Observation Table:
Values IT I1 I2 I3 VT V1 V2 V3 RT
Calculated 0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02 8.01 2.28 3.42 2.28 350

Measured 0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02 8 2.29 3.43 2.29 350

% Error 0% 0% 0% 0% 0.5% 0.5% 0.5% 0.5% 0%

Conclusion:As we know that in series circuit current remains same only voltage is
changed. In the above we see that only %error occurs in the voltage value. There is no
%error in current values.
