For a circuit to be modelled with an ideal source, output impedance, and input impedance; the circuit's input reactance can be sized to be the negative of the output reactance at the source. In this scenario, the reactive component of the input impedance cancels the reactive component of the output impedance at the source.
If the resistance is not constant, the previous equation cannot be called Ohm's law, but it can still be used as a definition of static/DC resistance. [4] Ohm's law is an empirical relation which accurately describes the conductivity of the vast majority of electrically conductive materials over many orders of magnitude of current.
In electrical engineering, impedance is the opposition to alternating current presented by the combined effect of resistance and reactance in a circuit. [1]Quantitatively, the impedance of a two-terminal circuit element is the ratio of the complex representation of the sinusoidal voltage between its terminals, to the complex representation of the current flowing through it.

The input impedance of an infinite line is equal to the characteristic impedance since the transmitted wave is never reflected back from the end. Equivalently: The characteristic impedance of a line is that impedance which, when terminating an arbitrary length of line at its output, produces an input impedance of equal value. This is so because ...
Blackman's theorem is a general procedure for calculating the change in an impedance due to feedback in a circuit. It was published by Ralph Beebe Blackman in 1943, [1] was connected to signal-flow analysis by John Choma, and was made popular in the extra element theorem by R. D. Middlebrook and the asymptotic gain model of Solomon Rosenstark.
Because the amplifier input resistance is small, the driver delivers by current division a current v Thév / R S to the amplifier. The current gain is unity, so the same current is delivered to the output load R L , producing by Ohm's law an output voltage v out = v Thév R L / R S , that is, the first form of the voltage gain above.
Plot showing underdamped and overdamped responses of a series RLC circuit to a voltage input step of 1 V. The critical damping plot is the bold red curve. The plots are normalised for L = 1, C = 1 and ω 0 = 1. The differential equation has the characteristic equation, [7] + + =.
The input voltage source has to have internal impedance > or it has to be connected through another impedance element to the input. Under these conditions, the input voltage V i {\displaystyle V_{i}} of the circuit changes its polarity as the output voltage exceeds the voltage drop V z {\displaystyle V_{z}} across the impedance ( V i = V z − ...
