PROCEDURE:

1. Insert the Module DL3155E01 in the console and set the

main switch to ON;
2. Connect a multimeter, set as dc voltmeter, as in Fig.1.1a;
a. By connecting the multimeter you can determine
the amount of voltage flowing through the circuit
3. Measure the total voltage Ut
a. Through the multimeter you can see the total
voltage flowing through the circuit.
4. Push and release the push-button S1 by verifying the
switching on and off of the red led;
5. Observe the brightness of the led by keeping the pushbutton S1 pushed;
a. The red leds brightness was luminous.
6. Release the push-0button S1 and move the multimeter,
set as dc voltmeter, as in Fig.1.1b; adjust the variable
voltage + V so to have zero volt between the points A and
B;
7. Remove the multimeter and connect the two points A and
B and push the push- button S2;
8. Observe the brightness of the same led with the 2 parallel
batteries;
9. Compare with the configuration of the two series batteries
and comment on the results;
a. The brightness of the red led is noticeably dimmer.
10.Remove now the multimeter, set as a dc voltmeter, to the
second circuit of the BATTERIES block, as in Fig.1.1c and
adjust the variable voltage +V to +5 Vdc again;
11.Connect with a cable the two points C and D;
12.Observe that none of the two lads (yellow and green)
switches on;

13.Gradually increase the variable voltage +V until 10 V dc

and observe the
conduction and the switching on, even gradual, of the
yellow led;
14.Decrease the variable voltage +V until 5 V dc where none
of the two leds conducts;
a. The yellow led gradually becomes brighter as the
variable voltage is release.
15.Decrease +V again until 0 V dc and observe the
conduction and the gradual switching on of the green led;
a. The gradual switching on of the green led was
observed when the variable voltage was decreased.
16.Repeat the previous operation by replacing, instead of the
cable between C and D, the multimeter set as dc
millimeter with the positive terminal connected to the of
the V and vary V between) and 10 V dc;
17.Observe the current flux when +V is greater than +5 V dc
and when +V is lower than +5 V dc;
a. When +Vis greater than +5V, the current flux is
also greater
18.Comment on the results of the series opposing
configuration.
a. In a series opposing configuration , the total voltage
is lower than in a series non opposing configuration
b. The red bulb is brighter with the two series batteries
configuration

QUESTION:
How many batteries of 1.5V is it necessary to series to have
an equivalent voltage of 12V?
1. 4
2. 6
3. 8

Two series voltage batteries sum up if;

1. The positive pole of one is connected to the negative pole
of the other one
2. The positive pole of one is connected to the positive pole
of the other one
3. In both cases

By parallel connecting two batteries of 15V the total p.m. is;

1. 3V
2. 0V
3. 1.5V

CONCLUSION:
