PART IIIB: Data Recording – Diode and Capacitor
➀
Add the 470
µ
F capacitor in parallel to the 100
Ω
resistor. Carefully bend the leads of the
capacitor so they can fit in the same component springs as the resistor. Put the shorter wire lead
of the capacitor into the right hand component spring. The capacitor acts as a “filter”.
