Circuit Board Resistors In Parallel. The currents in the branches of a parallel circuit add up to the supply. Resistors are said to be connected together in parallel when both of their terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other resistor or resistors unlike the previous series resistor circuit in a parallel resistor network the circuit current can take more than one path as there are multiple paths for the current.
Progressing from a nice neat schematic diagram to the real circuit especially when the resistors to be connected are physically arranged in a linear fashion on the terminal strip. When calculating resistance the measurements are in ohms. A resistor s purpose includes the division of voltage.
It appears that all 6 resistors are 120ω and thus the network has a total resistance of 20ω if i did the math right.
It appears that all 6 resistors are 120ω and thus the network has a total resistance of 20ω if i did the math right. The equivalent overall resistance is smaller than the smallest parallel resistor. Resistors are a part of a printed circuit board.
