What is a Series-Parallel Circuit?
With simple series circuits, all components are connected end-to-end to form only one path for electrons to flow through the circuit: With simple parallel circuits, all components are connected...
View ArticleAnalysis Technique
The goal of series-parallel resistor circuit analysis is to be able to determine all voltage drops, currents, and power dissipations in a circuit. The general strategy to accomplish this goal is as...
