The best-known bridge circuit, the Wheatstone bridge, was invented by Samuel Hunter Christie and popularized by Charles Wheatstone, and is used for measuring resistance. It is constructed from four resistors, two of known values R 1 and R 3 (see diagram), one whose resistance is to be determined R x, and one which is variable and calibrated R 2.
A Wheatstone bridge is an electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown component. The primary benefit of the circuit is its ability to provide extremely accurate measurements (in contrast with something like a simple voltage divider ). [ 1 ]

An H-bridge is an electronic circuit that switches the polarity of a voltage applied to a load. These circuits are often used in robotics and other applications to allow DC motors to run forwards or backwards. [ 1 ]

Consider the circuit diagram of Anderson's bridge in the given figure. Let L 1 be the self- inductance and R 1 be the electrical resistance of the coil under consideration. Since the voltmeter is ideally assumed to have nearly infinite impedance, the currents in branches ab and bc and those in the branches de and ec are taken to be equal.
Schematic of a Wien bridge oscillator that uses diodes to control amplitude. This circuit typically produces total harmonic distortion in the range of 1-5% depending on how carefully it is trimmed. The conventional oscillator circuit is designed so that it will start oscillating ("start up") and that its amplitude will be controlled.
Bridge topology is rendered in circuit diagrams in several ways. The first rendering in figure 1.8 is the traditional depiction of a bridge circuit. The second rendering clearly shows the equivalence between the bridge topology and a topology derived by series and parallel combinations. The third rendering is more commonly known as lattice ...
