In the basic circuit tutorials up to this point, we have generally represented a voltage potential by just assigning a node one potential and another node a different potential. ...

Ohm’s Law is a foundational equation in basic circuits and is amazing in its simplicity and its usage. In this tutorial, we’re going to learn about what Ohm’s Law is, where you ...

If you’re first starting to learn about basic circuits or basic electronics, it’s best to take a brief few minutes to understand the basics of electricity and some of the ...

Every circuit has a power source, or else it won’t do much. While the actual power source can vary wildly, they all fit under the two general titles of “voltage source” or ...

Potentiometers. Pots. Trimmers. Rheostats. If you’ve done very much with electronics, you’ve heard at least a couple of these words. Maybe you’ve heard them interchangeably and ...

Multimeters are used by anyone who deals with electricity. They’re very versatile and can be used to characterize an embedded system or troubleshoot a non-functioning lightbulb in ...

Despite the fact that there are many, many buttons on an oscilloscope, if you keep things simple and ignore what you don’t need, they’re not too bad to use. Let’s go over what the ...

There are two different ways to look at phases. First, it’s when voltages are out of phase from each other, such as with 3 phase power, and second, when voltage is out of phase ...
