Analog Troubleshooting Notes

Lab 1:

Done in class – not many issues as I was merely following directions

When adding additional LED: I did burn out an LED when I attempted to connect the light from one side of the switch directly to negative without using a resistor.

When adding photocell: I tried to add the photocell from the LED to negative, but it wouldn’t work. I then realized I needed to place the resistor in between the photocell and LED. I connected the photocell to one side of the switch, connected a resistor, and then connected an LED to the resistor and to negative.

Lab 7

I had a little trouble when creating this circuit as I didn’t consider the connections to the potentiometer, and had a capacitor and resistor incorrectly placed on the center of the potentiometer.
