DC Fundamentals Unit 12 – Voltage and Current Divider Circuits


Exercise 2 – Current Dividers ...................................................................................................


EXERCISE OBJECTIVE


When you have completed this exercise, you will be able to demonstrate current distribution by
using a current divider. You will verify your results with a multimeter.


EXERCISE DISCUSSION



  • In a parallel circuit, current is inversely proportional to the resistances in the circuit branches.


• The sum of the branch currents of a current divider equals the total current of the circuit
