Led and Zener Diode Tester
Description
This device displays the forward voltage of an LED or Zener diode. Assembly is straightforward—use the included wiring diagram for reference.
Safety Warning:
Li-Po batteries can be hazardous if mishandled. Always use a proper charger board, observe correct polarity, and never short-circuit, overcharge, or leave the battery charging unattended. Discontinue use if the battery becomes hot, swollen, or damaged.
IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH HANDLING LI-PO BATTERIES, SEEK ADVICE FROM A KNOWLEDGEABLE TECHNICIAN. IMPROPER USE CAN CAUSE FIRE OR INJURY.
Components required:
- 2 × M2 × 5 mm hex cap screws
- 1 four-digit voltmeter with isolated 3-wire power supply
- 1 boost converter (XL6009)
- 1 Li-Po charger board
- 1 × 10 kilo-ohms resistor (1/2 W)
- 1 Li-Po battery (~600 mAh)
- 1 tactile switch (12 × 12 mm, 5 mm button height)
- 2 alligator clips (red for +, black for –)
- Assorted wires (red and black recommended)
- Heat-shrink tubing
