PART IIIB: Data Recording – Diode and Capacitor
Add the 470 µF capacitor in parallel to the 100 resistor. Carefully bend the leads of the
capacitor so they can fit in the same component springs as the resistor. Put the shorter wire lead
of the capacitor into the right hand component spring. The capacitor acts as a “filter”.
