LIGHT EMITTING DIODES

A light emitting diode (LED) is essentially a PN junction diode that emits a light when operated in a forward biased direction.

How Does A LED Work? (1/2)

When sufficient voltage is applied to the chip across the leads of the LED, electrons can move easily in only one direction across the junction between the p and n regions. In the p region there are many more positive than negative charges. When a voltage is applied and the current starts to flow, electrons in the n region have sufficient energy to move across the junction into the p region.

IR LED & PHOTODIODE:


IR LED means Infrared Light Emitting Diode. It emits Infrared Light when current passed through it. These IR LED are used to detect obstacles ahead The clear Photodiode can detect visible and IR rays to limit the Photodiode to detect only IR rays a black coating is applied to the glass of the Photodiode.

ZENER DIODE:A Zener diode is a diode which allows current to flow in the forward direction in the same manner as an ideal diode, but also permits it to flow in the reverse direction when the voltage is above a certain value known as the breakdown voltage, "zener knee voltage", "zener voltage" or "avalanche point".

MULTIMETER
A Multimeter or a Multitester, also known as a volt/ohm meter is an electronic Measuring instrument that combines Several function in one unit. A standard multimeter may include feature such as the ability to measure Voltage , current & resistance value etc..

There are 2 styles of multimeters


Switched
Manually switch between ranges to get most accurate reading.

Auto Range
Switches between ranges automatically for best reading.

Both of these styles work the same

Display & Dial Settings
