What is the purpose of parallel resistor and reverse parallel diode at supply?
-Most of the output of low voltage power supply (like 5V cell phone charger OR output of 7805 regulator) has a resistor connected between positive to ground, for why? What is the best resistor value for 5V supply? Equation?
- I have found also a Big diode in few circuit connected reversly paralleled at the voltage (battery) input, hope it is protection diode to protect the circuit from if there is mistake in connection of battery polarity, isn't it? Won't if affect the voltage just leaving connected?
