Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, ...

Previous tutorials have described that resistors may either be connected as a series circuit or a parallel circuit where the currents and voltages are obtained using Ohm’s Law. To produce more complex ...

Series and Parallel Circuit Series and parallel circuits are two fundamental configurations in electrical circuits, each with distinct characteristics that affect how electricity flows through them.

Two lamps connected in series with an open switch and a cell The circuit diagram shows a circuit with two lamps connected in series. If one lamp breaks, the other lamp will not light. The current is ...

Editor’s note: This is the second in a three-part series that began in the March 12 issue with a discussion of heat reclaim in three-way valve operation. Heat reclaim can be accomplished with either a ...
