Simple Electronics Practical to Observe the Forward Bias Diode Characteristic

In this video, we will carry out a simple electronics practical to measure and observe the non-linear forward bias diode characteristic curve. The practical requires only a breadboard, batter and battery snap, a range of resistors and a diode. This video is intended for those who might be new to or unfamiliar with breadboarding and/or electronics practical work. The results are then calculated and plotted using spreadsheet software such as MS Excel to observe the characteristic curve. Additional practical videos along with an introduction to breadboarding can be found here:    • Electronic Circuit Breadboarding & Practical   For more information on our HNC and HND Programmes, visit: https://engineers.academy/
