  2. Ayrton shunt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayrton_shunt

    Ayrton shunt switching principle. The Ayrton shunt or universal shunt is a high-resistance shunt used in galvanometers to increase their range [1] without changing the damping. [2] The circuit is named after its inventor William E. Ayrton. [3] Multirange ammeters that use this technique are more accurate than those using a make-before-break ...

    A better arrangement is the Ayrton shunt or universal shunt, ... And if the movement resistance is 1000 ohms, for example, R1 must be adjusted to 4.525 ohms.

  4. Ayrton–Perry winding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayrton–Perry_winding

    An Ayrton–Perry winding (named for William Edward Ayrton and John Perry) is a type of bifilar winding pattern used in winding wire on forms to make RF resistors. Its advantage is that the resulting coil of wire has low values of parasitic inductance and parasitic capacitance . [ 1 ]

    The marriage took place while Ayrton was on home leave from India and Matilda was involved in the Edinburgh Seven campaign. Chaplin was awarded a posthumous honorary MBChB by the University of Edinburgh in 2019. [4] Chaplin and Ayrton's daughter was the feminist and author Edith Ayrton, wife of Israel Zangwill and mother of Oliver Zangwill. [2]

  6. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

    A shunt is a device that is designed to provide a low-resistance path for an electrical current in a circuit. It is typically used to divert current away from a system or component in order to prevent overcurrent. Electrical shunts are commonly used in a variety of applications including power distribution systems, electrical measurement ...

  7. Equivalent impedance transforms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_impedance...

    The circuit is due to Hendrik Bode who claims that the addition of the bridging resistor of a suitable value will cancel the parasitic resistance of the shunt inductor. The action of this circuit is clear if it is transformed into T topology – in this form there is a negative resistance in the shunt branch which can be made to be exactly ...

  9. Characteristic impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_impedance

    The line is modeled by a series of differential segments with differential series elements ( ⁡, ⁡) and shunt elements ( ⁡, ⁡ ) (as shown in the figure at the beginning of the article). The characteristic impedance is defined as the ratio of the input voltage to the input current of a semi-infinite length of line.
