Question
For the following circuit, solve for R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 given the specified voltages and current. The values of R will be 220, 330, 2200, 3300, or 10,000 ohms. Choose resistors that get you the lowest amount of deviation from the desired result. Remember that tolerance will be a factor in your calculations.
R1 = ?
R2 = ?
R3 = ?
R4 = ?
R5 = ?
Explanation / Answer
For R1 :
(18-12.8) = (220+330+R1)* 1.336*10^-3 ; R1 = 3342 Ohm
For R2 :
12.8-11.5 = Req * I = 1.336*10^-3 * (R1*R2*R2/(R1R2+R2R3+R1R3))
So, 2200*2200*R2/(2200*2200+2200*R2+2200*R2) = 973
R2 = 8427.56 ohm
For R3:
Req = (11.5-8.1)/I = 2545 = R3 + (10000*330/(10000+330))
R3 = 2225.5 ohm
for R4 :
Req = (8.1-4.8)/I = (10000*R4/(10000+R4)) = 2470
R4 = 3280 ohm
For R5:
Req = 4.8/I = R5+3300
R5 = 292.8 ohm
