In this post, you will learn how to calculate resistors in series and parallel. First of all, we shall be analyzing resistors’ networks that are in series connections and perform some calculations. After this, the analysis and calculations of resistors in parallel. RESISTORS IN SERIES Things you should know when resistors are connected in series. …

This article explains resistors and types of resistors. Resistors are passive two-terminal electronic components that offer electrical resistance or opposition to flow of current in a circuit. Resistors reduce current flow and also they lower voltage in an electronic circuit. Mixture of carbon or various compound and films are use for constructing them. Also, they …
To find the value of an unknown resistor in series connections using ONLY a voltmeter isn’t that hard! however, it might seems to be but, this post will put you through the easiest step by steps to do that. Example of a problem like this: Consider two Resistors in series connection; one has 1KΩ resistance …

How can I use multimeter to measure the value of resistors? This article will put you through how to measure resistor’s value using multimeter. In this post, we will use digital multimeter. The post provides you with five (5) steps (step by step) how to measure resistor’s value using multimeter with photos. Before we do …
You might have often come across Resistors and wondered, tried to figure out its value and asked yourself “what is the value of this resistor?” You become frustrated to determining unknown resistors’ values. Perhaps on a Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), you might have seen a resistor soldered and with its value written on the board. …
Resistors colour codes system of determining unknown resistor’s value could be hard to be used. But in this post I published, “How to Read Resistor colour codes” makes things easy and simple. Resistors which their values are not printed on them use colour codes for their resistance identification. This article on resistor colour codes teaches …
Resistors in both series and parallel calculations have been some challenges which many people especially students face in their academic course. In this post, I approached and solved a problem on resistors connected in such network. The solved problem could be similarly or familiar to what you have ever come across. It could be useful …
At the end of this post, you should be able to state ohms law and its limitations respectively. OHM’S LAW A German Physicist George Simon Ohm in 1926 made an experiment and observed that for any good conductor, there is a relationship between current (I) flowing through the conductor and the potential difference (V) across …
