When more than two resistors are connected in parallel the equation becomes:\(\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R}_{1}+\frac{1}{R}_{2}+\frac{1}{R}_{3}\) The supply voltage is a measure of the energy supplied to ...

Previous tutorials have described that resistors may either be connected as a series circuit or a parallel circuit where the currents and voltages are obtained using Ohm’s Law. To produce more complex ...

Parallel Circuit Calculations provides a comprehensive overview of the rules and formulas used to calculate electrical quantities and capacity. Using a direct current parallel circuit as an example, ...

Barry Brents, Field Application Engineer of TE Connectivity’s business unit TE Circuit Protection, talks about the resistance of a PolySwitch PPTC resettable device in a tripped condition and explains ...

The “trimpot” is the standard solution to the analog designer’s occasional need to fine-tune a resistance in a precision circuit. But this old standby isn’t always available. For example, in some ...
