Description

AL-E084 VARACTOR DIODE CHARACTERISTICS TRAINER (DIGITAL)

Product Code: AL-E084
Product Name: Varactor Diode Characteristics Trainer (Digital)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Product Overview

The AL-E084 Varactor Diode Characteristics Trainer (Digital) is a compact laboratory training system designed for practical study of the V-I characteristics of a varactor diode. The trainer integrates regulated DC power, digital voltage/current measurement, variable voltage control, and a sine-wave oscillator on a single instructional panel.

2. Scope of Learning

The trainer is designed for the following experiment:

  • Study of V-I characteristics of a Varactor Diode.
  • Observation of variation in diode current with applied voltage.
  • Measurement of input voltage and output voltage using onboard digital voltmeters.
  • Measurement of diode current using the onboard digital ammeter.
  • Study of voltage-controlled operation of the varactor diode.
  • Practical operation using 4 mm patch-cord connections.
