Connect positive to negative, leaving the end positive and negative connections free to power circuits or devices. Connecting batteries in series adds the voltage of the batteries. For instance, connecting three 12v car batteries in series will create a total of 36v, enough for welding.

∙ 14y agoYou connect the anode of the second diode to the cathode of the first diode. The anode of the first diode and the cathode of the second diode become the two terminals of the combined diodes. The combination acts as a voltage source.
You can also connect the anode of the second diode to the anode of the diode. The combination serves to block any signal going through, until the breakdown voltage of one of the diodes is reached.

What is the difference between series and parallel diodes?
Connecting diodes in series:Connecting diodes in series will increase the forward voltage of the resultant diode.Connecting diodes in series will cause an open circuit until peak inverse voltage (smallest diode) is applied on total resultant.Connecting diodes in parallel:Connecting diodes in parallel will increase the current carrying capacity of the diode.Connecting diodes in parallel will not get you a resultant diode conduction in both sides.
You are building a string of lights using several bulbs how is the brightness of the lights related to whether you connect the bulbs in series or in parallel?
Overall brightness (not individual bulbs' brightness) will increase when we connect them in parallel & it will decrease when we connect them in series.
Is 1N4007 OA79 silicon or germanium diode?
The entire 1N40xx series of power diodes are all silicon. The OA79 small signal diode is germanium.
How surge current is produced in a capacitor input filter?
Being that the capacitor appears as a short during the initial charging, the current through the diodes can momentarily be quite high. To reduce risk of damaging the diodes, a surge current limiting resistor is placed in series with the filter and load.
How do you connect Two DC generators together to double the output voltage?
You would connect them in series to double the output voltage.
What are the problems of series connected diodes and what are the possible sulotions?
A: The question remains why would anybody connect diodes in series to begin with only one is necessary. So the solution is use one

How is series clipper differ from parallel clipper?
Series clipper diodes are in series connection with the load while Parallel clippers are in parallel connection with the load.
How do you connect a ammeter into a circuit?
connect ammeter in series with load.
When the output of two 5.6 volts zener diodes circuits are connected in series do you obtain 2x5.611.2 volts?
If you are saying that the Zeners are connected in series, the answer is Yes.
How do you connect resistance is series?
I'm going to take this as "How do you connect resistors is series?" just connect one wire of the first resistor to one wire of the second.
You need a 1watt zener diode for your circuit but you have only four .25W If you connect four .25 Watt of zener diodes in parallel Is it the resultant wattage become 1 Watt?
No, four zener diodes in parallel will not increase the power rating of the set. This is because one zener will always conduct first, so it will be the only one that has current through it. If, however, you put four zener diodes in series, each with a voltage rating one quarter your desired voltage, you can achieve a higher power rating for the set.
How do you connect six 6-volt cart batteries?
Connect them in series.
What is the best way to regulate the voltage when a charger for batteries up to 14V and a 12V camera are plugged into a 12 volt battery and turned on at the same time?
The nominal voltage of a led-acid battery is 13.5 V (almost 14). All equipment connected to 12 V batteries are design to withstand the 13.5 V and a little more. If worried, connect one or two silicon diodes in series from the + terminal of the battery to your camera, as follows: _____ _____ (+)-------[_____]-----[_____]------(o) Battery Cathode Cathode Camera input terminal The diodes will create a constant voltage drop of 0.7 V each. If you mount them inside a lamp switch, when the switch is on, the diodes will be short-circuited (charger off); when the switch is off, th diodes will be inserted in series (charger on)
To construct a battery with a current of 6 amps you would connect six 1 amps cells?
You would connect them in parallel to increase the amerage. If you connect them in series it would increase the voltage. Connected in series-parallel would increase both voltage and amerage.
What are the major classification of diodes?
1. general purpose diodes 2. fast recovery diodes 3. schottky diodes
What are examples of diodes?
There are so many different types of diodes. Some of the common examples include light emitting diodes, silicon diodes, zener diodes and so many more.
