  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    Each organ is supplied by a large artery, smaller arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and veins arranged in series. The total resistance is the sum of the individual resistances, as expressed by the following equation: R total = R artery + R arterioles + R capillaries. The largest proportion of resistance in this series is contributed by the ...

  3. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    Series RL, parallel C circuit with resistance in series with the inductor is the standard model for a self-resonant inductor. A series resistor with the inductor in a parallel LC circuit as shown in Figure 4 is a topology commonly encountered where there is a need to take into account the resistance of the coil winding and its self-capacitance.

  4. Sheet resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_resistance

    This is an advantage, because sheet resistance of 1 Ω could be taken out of context and misinterpreted as bulk resistance of 1 ohm, whereas sheet resistance of 1 Ω/sq cannot thus be misinterpreted. The reason for the name "ohms per square" is that a square sheet with sheet resistance 10 ohm/square has an actual resistance of 10 ohm ...

  5. Thévenin's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thévenin's_theorem

    The resistance is measured after replacing all voltage- and current-sources with their internal resistances. That means an ideal voltage source is replaced with a short circuit, and an ideal current source is replaced with an open circuit. Resistance can then be calculated across the terminals using the formulae for series and parallel circuits ...

  6. Transfer length method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_length_method

    The former component can be described with the formula , whereas represents the sheet resistance of the semiconductor substrate and the width of the metal pads. The other component that contributes to the total resistance is denoted by 2 R C {\displaystyle 2R_{C}} because when two adjacent pads are characterized two identical metallized areas ...

  7. Equivalent series resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_resistance

    The DC wire resistance is an important parameter in transformer and general inductor design because it contributes to the impedance of the component, and current flowing through that resistance is dissipated as waste heat, and energy is lost from the circuit. It can be modeled as a resistor in series with the inductor, often leading to the DC ...

  8. Contact resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_resistance

    That means that the contact resistance of the probes and their leads is inseparable from the resistance of the contact area to be measured, with which they are in series. In a four-terminal measurement, the current used to make the measurement is injected using a second, separate pair of leads, so the contact resistance of the measurement ...

  9. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    where resistance in ohms and capacitance in farads yields the time constant in seconds or the cutoff frequency in hertz (Hz). The cutoff frequency when expressed as an angular frequency ( ω c = 2 π f c ) {\displaystyle (\omega _{c}{=}2\pi f_{c})} is simply the reciprocal of the time constant.
