  4. Learning objectives • Recall electricity formulae • Draw a potential divider circuit • Explain how a potential divider circuit works • Select and use the potential divider equation

  5. Sometimes only part of the voltage in a circuit is wanted. To allow us to do this we can use a potential divider circuit 6V Here is a simple potential divider circuit. What would you expect the voltage to read? 100Ω 3V V 100Ω

  6. +6V 0V 100Ω 3V

  7. +6V 0V • 200Ω 400Ω 4V 2V

  8. +10V 0V • 100Ω 400Ω +10V 8V 2V

  9. +6V 0V • 138.21Ω 453Ω ??V ??V

  10. R1 Vin Vout R2
