Resistors are electronic components that resist the flow of electrical current by dissipating its voltage in a manner called dropping. Simply put, a resistor will drop a percentage of a circuit’s voltage. That percentage is equal to the value of a given resistor, in ohms, when compared to t...
Chapter 1 - Resistor Fundamentals The resistor is a passive electrical component that creates resistance in the flow of electric current. In almost all electrical networks and electronic circuits they can be found. The resistance is measured in ohms (Ω). An ohm is the resistance that occurs whe...
R1 is the resistor that is always close to the input voltage source and R2 is the resistor that is near to the ground. Vout is the voltage drop across the resistor, R2. It is actually the divider voltage that we get from this circuit as the output. Equation of Voltage Divider in ...
Thedefinition ofthe resistoris, it is a basic two-terminalelectrical and electronic componentused to restrict the current flow in a circuit. The resistance toward the flow of current will result in the voltage drop. These devices may provide a permanent, adjustable resistance value. The value of...
Open Circuit Resistance The behavior of aresistoris given byOhm’s law. The voltage across the resistor is proportional to the current. Hence, the equation of ohm’s law is, In an open circuit condition, the current is zero (I = 0). ...
If you're under the impression that Class-D amplifiers are just 'three letters worse' than Class-A models, think again: Class-D technology is making an increasing impact on the live sound world by offering more power with less weight than ever before. We
A single integrated circuit (IC), such as a microprocessor chip, can do the work of a set of vacuum tubes.Semiconductor MaterialsThere are several materials and elements used to make semiconductor. The basic requirement is that the material should not be a very good conductor of electricity, ...
LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) as the name states is a special type of resistor that works on the photoconductivity principle means that resistance changes according to the intensity of light. Its resistance decreases with an increase in the intensity of light. It is often used as a light senso...
While EVs continue to grow in importance and charging infrastructure is improving, designers still must prepare for transients and other risks from external charging operations...
The purpose of a voltage regulator is to keep the voltage in a circuit relatively close to a desired value. Voltage regulators are one of the most common electronic components, since a power supply frequently produces raw current that would otherwise dam
