  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    In a series circuit, the current that flows through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the individual voltage drops across each component. [1] In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents flowing through each ...

  3. 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 .

  4. 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.

  5. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

    If connected in series with the circuit it simply prevents reversed current, but if connected in parallel it can shunt the reversed supply, causing a fuse or other current limiting circuit to open. All semiconductor diodes have a threshold voltage – typically between 0.5 volt and 1 volt – that must be exceeded before significant current ...

    series and parallel circuits Electrical circuits where current passes through multiple elements either one after the other, or side by side, like the rungs of a ladder, or both. shaded-pole motor An alternating current single-phase motor that produces a rotating magnetic field by a turn of wire around part of a field pole. shaft voltage

  7. Electrical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resonance

    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.

  8. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    A parallel resonant circuit can be used as load impedance in output circuits of RF amplifiers. Due to high impedance, the gain of amplifier is maximum at resonant frequency. Both parallel and series resonant circuits are used in induction heating. LC circuits behave as electronic resonators, which are a key component in many applications ...

  9. Bridge circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_circuit

    A bridge circuit is a topology of electrical circuitry in which two circuit branches (usually in parallel with each other) are "bridged" by a third branch connected between the first two branches at some intermediate point along them. The bridge was originally developed for laboratory measurement purposes and one of the intermediate bridging ...
