  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    A circuit composed solely of components connected in series is known as a series circuit; likewise, one connected completely in parallel is known as a parallel circuit. Many circuits can be analyzed as a combination of series and parallel circuits, along with other configurations .

  3. Neural circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_circuit

    In a parallel after-discharge circuit, a neuron inputs to several chains of neurons. Each chain is made up of a different number of neurons but their signals converge onto one output neuron. Each synapse in the circuit acts to delay the signal by about 0.5 msec, so that the more synapses there are, the longer is the delay to the output neuron.

  4. Parallel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel

    Parallel (geometry), two lines in the Euclidean plane which never intersect Parallel (operator) , mathematical operation named after the composition of electrical resistance in parallel circuits Science and engineering

  5. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law, in the form above, is an extremely useful equation in the field of electrical/electronic engineering because it describes how voltage, current and resistance are interrelated on a "macroscopic" level, that is, commonly, as circuit elements in an electrical circuit.

  6. Parallel communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_communication

    Parallel versus serial communication In data transmission , parallel communication is a method of conveying multiple binary digits ( bits ) simultaneously using multiple conductors. This contrasts with serial communication , which conveys only a single bit at a time; this distinction is one way of characterizing a communications link .

  7. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The definition of Q since its first use in 1914 has been generalized to apply to coils and condensers, resonant circuits, resonant devices, resonant transmission lines, cavity resonators, [5] and has expanded beyond the electronics field to apply to dynamical systems in general: mechanical and acoustic resonators, material Q and quantum systems such as spectral lines and particle resonances.

  8. Circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit

    Series and parallel circuits, two ways in which electrical components may be interconnected; Simple filters, including: LC circuit or tank circuit, consisting of an inductance and a capacitance; RC circuit, comprises a resistance and a capacitance; RL circuit, comprises a resistance and an inductance

  9. Voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage

    Voltage, also known as (electrical) potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension is the difference in electric potential between two points. [1] [2] In a static electric field, it corresponds to the work needed per unit of charge to move a positive test charge from the first point to the second point.
