Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If you have a circuit with a Vin of 15V, an R1 of 3kΩ, and an unknown R2, which your goal is to achieve an output of 5V, calculate R2.

💡 Hint: You will need to rearrange the voltage divider formula.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss how a voltage divider can affect the overall circuit performance if R1 and R2 are incorrectly sized.

💡 Hint: Consider what happens when resistors are too low or too high in value.
