PROCEDURE

PART I: Computer Setup

Connect the Science Workshop interface to the computer, turn on the interface, and turn on the
computer.

Connect one Voltage Sensor to Analog Channel A. Connect the other Voltage Sensor to Analog
Channel B.

Connect the Power Amplifier to Analog Channel C. Plug the power cord into the back of the
Power Amplifier and connect the power cord to an appropriate electrical receptacle.

In the Physics Folder of the Science Workshop Experiment Library, open the document:

Macintosh: “P55 Transistor Lab 2” / Windows: “P55_TRN2.SWS”

The document opens with a Graph display of Output Current (mA) for Analog Channel B versus
Input Current (mA) for Analog Channel A, and the Signal Generator window which controls the
Power Amplifier (Analog Output).
