Fall 2008Physics 231Lecture 6-1 Direct-Current Circuits.
Objective of Lecture Explain mathematically how a voltage that is applied to resistors in series is distributed among the resistors. Chapter 2.5 in Fundamentals.
Voltage and Current Division
IEEE’s Hands on Practical Electronics (HOPE)
Potential Divider Circuits Sometimes elements on circuit need less than the total voltage potential. Circuit that can be adjusted to divide the p.d. (voltage)
Voltage Current Dividers
