An RLC circuit is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C), connected in series or in parallel. The name of the circuit is derived from the letters that are used to denote the constituent components of this circuit, where the sequence of the components may vary from RLC.
parallel – series (circuits) resistance – conductance; voltage division – current division; impedance – admittance; capacitance – inductance; reactance – susceptance; short circuit – open circuit; Kirchhoff's current law – Kirchhoff's voltage law. KVL and KCL; Thévenin's theorem – Norton's theorem
The current entering any junction is equal to the current leaving that junction. i 2 + i 3 = i 1 + i 4. This law, also called Kirchhoff's first law, or Kirchhoff's junction rule, states that, for any node (junction) in an electrical circuit, the sum of currents flowing into that node is equal to the sum of currents flowing out of that node; or equivalently:
A resistor–inductor circuit (RL circuit), or RL filter or RL network, is an electric circuit composed of resistors and inductors driven by a voltage or current source. [1] A first-order RL circuit is composed of one resistor and one inductor, either in series driven by a voltage source or in parallel driven by a current source.
One-element networks are trivial and two-element, [note 3] two-terminal networks are either two elements in series or two elements in parallel, also trivial. The smallest number of elements that is non-trivial is three, and there are two 2-element-kind non-trivial transformations possible, one being both the reverse transformation and the topological dual, of the other.
An RLC circuit (or LCR circuit) is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor, connected in series or in parallel. The RLC part of the name is due to those letters being the usual electrical symbols for resistance, inductance and capacitance respectively. The circuit forms a harmonic oscillator for current and ...
The simplest system in which antiresonance arises is a system of coupled harmonic oscillators, for example pendula or RLC circuits. Consider two harmonic oscillators coupled together with strength g and with one oscillator driven by an oscillating external force F. The situation is described by the coupled ordinary differential equations
Nodal analysis is essentially a systematic application of Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) for circuit analysis. Similarly, mesh analysis is a systematic application of Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL). Nodal analysis writes an equation at each electrical node specifying that the branch currents incident at a node must sum to zero (using KCL). The ...
