Voltage Dividers as Regulators ?! | AO #22
Can you use a voltage divider as a regulator? What if you add a Zener Diode? In this episode James shows what happens when you try to power a complex circuit like an ESP8266 with a voltage divider instead of a regulator. (Spoiler: Get a voltage regulator.)
