SounDuke Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 is it possible to harm diodes simply testing with a battery meter the resistance on its sides? I mean, I tested a diode and I put the + of tester on the - of the diode. Must I drop the last in the bin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synapsys Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Hi,If by battery meter you mean a multi-meter than the answer is no. A multi-meter when measuring resistance has a very high impedance a very low current. This will not typically harm a diode.Cheers, Synapsys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
