  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    Substituting Ohm's law for conductance then gives, = + which in turn gives the formula for the equivalent conductance, = +. This equation can be rearranged slightly, though this is a special case that will only rearrange like this for two components.

  3. Electrical resistance and conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance_and...

    Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

  4. Landauer formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer_formula

    A generalization of the Landauer formula for multiple terminals is the Landauer–Büttiker formula, [5] [4] proposed by Markus Büttiker [].If terminal has voltage (that is, its chemical potential is and differs from terminal chemical potential), and , is the sum of transmission probabilities from terminal to terminal (note that , may or may not equal , depending on the presence of a magnetic ...

  5. Electrical resistivity and conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and...

    This equation, along with the continuity equation for J and the Poisson's equation for E, form a set of partial differential equations. In special cases, an exact or approximate solution to these equations can be worked out by hand, but for very accurate answers in complex cases, computer methods like finite element analysis may be required.

  6. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    The relationship between thermal conductance and resistance is analogous to that between electrical conductance and resistance in the domain of electronics. Thermal insulance ( R -value ) is a measure of a material's resistance to the heat current.

  7. Transconductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transconductance

    Transconductance (for transfer conductance), also infrequently called mutual conductance, is the electrical characteristic relating the current through the output of a device to the voltage across the input of a device. Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance. Transadmittance (or transfer admittance) is the AC equivalent of transconductance.

  8. Conductance quantum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductance_quantum

    The conductance quantum, denoted by the symbol G 0, is the quantized unit of electrical conductance.It is defined by the elementary charge e and Planck constant h as: = = = 7.748 091 729... × 10 −5 S.

  9. Siemens (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siemens_(unit)

    The siemens (symbol: S) is the unit of electric conductance, electric susceptance, and electric admittance in the International System of Units (SI). Conductance, susceptance, and admittance are the reciprocals of resistance, reactance, and impedance respectively; hence one siemens is equal to the reciprocal of one ohm (Ω −1) and is also referred to as the mho.
