Fig. 4.2: The schematic diagram when the 15 V & 5 V DC sources are
ON.
After which, we connect the power supply unit to the main power
supply line. We ensure that the output voltages of the power supply is set
and adjusted to 15 V DC for Voltage Source 1 and 5 V for Voltage Source 2
then we connect the supply to the circuit.
Fig. 4.3: The actual set-up when the 15 V and 5 V DC sources are ON.
To prove that the measured data are all correct, we simulate the circuit
diagrams using Tina Pro. As shown in Figure 4.6, the measured values and
the simulated values obtained in 15V and 5V DC source are similar to one
another.

Also, as shown in Figure 4.7, the measured values and the simulated
values obtained only in 15 V DC source are similar.

Lastly, as shown in Figure 4.8, the measured values and the simulated
obtained only in 5 V DC source are alike.
