Resistor values are selected after analysis for a given application. For most of the regular circuits, 1/4W resistors with ±5% tolerance carbon composition or carbon film resistors are used. However, ...

To produce more complex networks whose equivalent resistance is a combination of the individual resistors, individual resistors can be connected together in a series connection, a parallel connection ...

How precise is a 1% resistor? Dave Jones of EEVBlog made a great couple of videos exploring this topic (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WAhTdWErrU and http://www ...

Equivalent resistance is a crucial concept for individuals working with electrical circuits. It: Represents the single resistance that replaces multiple resistors in a circuit. Simplifies calculations ...

When resistors are connected in series, the current through each resistor is the same. In other words, the current is the same at all points in a series circuit. When resistors are connected in series ...

Low-voltage systems that drive loudspeakers often employ a bridged-amplifier configuration that effectively doubles the voltage swing at the transducer (speaker). In a typical bridge-amplifier circuit ...
