What analog designer hasn't had to derive a nonstandard resistor value by using series/parallel combinations of standard resistor values? In efforts to avoid a production trimpot tweak, we can use 0.1 ...

This video explains how resistors function and how Ohm’s Law defines the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in electronic circuits. Resistors are passive components used to control ...

A potential divider, also known as a voltage divider, is a simple yet essential circuit used to reduce voltage to a desired level. It consists of two resistors connected in series close seriesA way of ...

I get somewhat annoyed when I hear engineers who have some real-world experience or exposure casually dismiss a component, especially a passive one, as “simple.” It may be simple in concept or ...

To control system operation, motors require a current measurement, which can be achieved using shunt resistors that provide a simple and cost-effective solution. Motors are used in countless consumer ...
