CHAPTER 5 VOLTAGE AND CURRENT DIVIDER

What is the purpose of a divider circuit in circuit design?

• To eliminate the need for resistors

• To combine different voltage levels

• To produce different voltage levels from a single supply

• To increase the need for separate power supplies

What is a voltage divider circuit?

• A circuit that produces output voltage

• A circuit that produces output current

• A circuit that produces no output

• A circuit that produces both voltage and current

How is the output voltage calculated in a voltage divider circuit?

• By subtracting the input voltage from the resistors

• By dividing the input voltage by the resistors

• By adding the input voltage to the resistors

• By multiplying the input voltage with the resistors

What is a current divider circuit?

• A circuit that produces output voltage

• A circuit that produces no output

• A circuit that produces output current

• A circuit that produces both voltage and current

How does current divide in a current divider circuit?

• It divides in inverse proportion to the resistance

• It divides equally between the resistors

• It adds up with the resistance

• It multiplies with the resistance

What is the equation for calculating the divided voltage in a voltage divider circuit?

• voltage = input voltage - resistors

• voltage = input voltage * resistors

• voltage = input voltage / resistors

• voltage = input voltage + resistors

In a voltage divider circuit, where is the output voltage measured?

• At the end of the circuit

• At the beginning of the circuit

• At the connection between the resistors

• At the input voltage source
