Show-me board revision quiz 1.Draw the symbol for an LED 2.What happens to the resistance of a thermistor as it is heated up? 3.What happens to the resistance of an LDR if light intensity decreases? 4.How is the supply voltage, V s, related to the voltage across two components in series, V 1 and V 2 ?

What we will do today: State that a transistor can be used as a switch. Name the two types of transistor. Draw symbols for the two types of transistor. Investigate how voltage dividers work when using LDRs and thermocouples.

Transistor A transistor can be used as a switch. A transistor can be either ON (conducts electricity) or OFF (does not conduct) There are two types of transistor that we must know about: 1.MOSFET 2.npn – transistor We must be able to identify these transistors from diagrams.

1. MOSFET A MOSFET has three main parts: Gate; Drain; and Source. They switch on at approximately 2 V. It has the following symbol:

2. npn transistor Where b is the base e is the emitter c is the collector The npn transistor switches on at approximately 0.7 V.

Voltage Dividers When dealing with thermistors and LDRs in voltage dividers we only need concern ourselves with the voltage across the lower component, we will call this V o, the output voltage.

LDRs – show me board Draw a voltage divider circuit with an LDR and a variable resistor to show how we could investigate the voltage across the variable resistor. Hint: Make variable resistor V o, V output

LDR at top With a circuit set up as shown, we can investigate Vo in both light and dark conditions: ConditionV o (V) Dark Light

LDR at top As L ↑, R LDR ↓ So V LDR ↓ making V VR ↑ Therefore V o ↑

LDR at bottom ConditionV o (V) Dark Light

LDR at bottom As L ↑, R LDR ↓ So V LDR ↓ Therefore V o ↓

Thermistor at top With a circuit set up as shown, we can investigate Vo with in both cold and warm conditions: ConditionV o (V) Cold Warm

Thermistor at top As T ↑, R therm ↓ So V therm ↓ making V VR ↑ Therefore V o ↑

Thermistor at bottom ConditionV o (V) Cold Warm

Thermistor at bottom As T ↑, R therm ↓ So V therm ↓ Therefore V o ↓
