Test a Diode by Digital Multimeter

Forward Biased: When the Positive (Red) test lead is connected to the anode (+) and negative (Black) test lead is connected to the cathode (-) of diode. In Forward-biased, the diode acts like close switch and will pass the current through it like conductors.

Reverse Biased: If we do the reverse as mention above i.e. RED Test lead to cathode (-) and BLACK test lead to the Anode (+) of the diode. In revere-biased, the diode acts like open switch and will not let pass the current through it like resistor.

If multimeter does not show measurements I.e. if multimeter display “OL” reading in both direction (Forward-biased and reverse-biased), its mean diode is dead and acting as an open switch which doesn’t allow current to flow in it.

OPISOMETER

 

Opisometer an instrument used to measure curved lines on a map.

How is rheostat resistance measured?

Take a multimeter.

Tap the Terminal B and Terminal C and hold properly.

You get the resistance of the sliding contact.
