We use batteries to supply power in several projects. The chemicals contained in the battery are converted into an electrical current, which in turn makes the battery contain the potential energy.

Monolithic ratiometric resistor dividers provide a low-drift solution for converting the high voltages in modern EV battery packs into voltages suitable for conversion and processing in the ADC of a ...

Why get up close and personal with a resistor when you can tweak it from a distance? Remote variable resistors make analog circuit control easier, neater, and a lot more fun. Well, we are about to ...

When we do textbook analysis, we tend to ignore the real-world concerns for the sake of learning. So, a typical theoretical voltage divider is simply two resistors. But if you examine a low-pass RC ...

While almost always called "potentiometers" (which are technically defined as three-terminal variable voltage dividers), many "pots" actually end up being used as variable resistors (rheostats) ...

a voltage divider reduces the voltage in a circuit the resistance value of the resistors will set the output voltage potential dividers can be two resistors connected in series across a circuit it is ...

If you need a potentiometer for a project, chances are pretty good that you’re not going to pick up a pencil and draw one. Then again, if you’re teaching someone how a variable resistor works, that ...
