Ellie and James explore series and parallel circuits. They also discuss the differences between current and resistance across different circuits and how to calculate them.

Learn how engineers design electrical circuits by calculating the voltage, current and resistance of electrical components.

The Basics of Series-Parallel Circuits Both voltage and current divide in these circuits Electric circuits often consist of several elements, some combined in series and others in parallel. The ...

We define the properties of parallel and complex circuits. Unit 5 Segment H: Parallel and Complex Circuits We define the properties of parallel and complex circuits. We examine how to find the ...

Two drivers in parallel provide twice as much current and split power loss into two locations, which makes for easier heat dissipation.

Figure 1 shows an 8- to 40-V input, 5-V output at 4-A maximum load current, dc-dc converter. It uses two LT3430 60-V monolithic, 3-A (peak switch current) buck regulators in parallel. The ICs are ...

To improve efficiency in high-power applications, voltage regulators can be used in parallel to double output current capability—if a means of forcing current sharing is provided. One circuit ...

It’s often necessary to connect point-of- load (POL) dc/dc power supply modules in parallel to get a sufficiently high-current output for applications such as test instruments ...
