In a certain five-step R/2R ladder network, the smallest resistor value is 1 kΩ. The largest value is___________?
Correct answer: B. 2 kΩ
- A. Indeterminable
- B. 2 kΩ
- C. 10 kΩ
- D. 20 kΩ
Explanation
An R/2R ladder uses only the two resistor values R and 2R, regardless of the number of sections. With the smallest value R = 1 kΩ, the largest value is 2 kΩ.
