  2. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

    The points where the characteristic curve and the load line intersect are the possible operating point(s) of the circuit; at these points the current and voltage parameters of both parts of the circuit match. [1] The example at right shows how a load line is used to determine the current and voltage in a simple diode circuit.

  3. Voltage doubler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_doubler

    Figure 2.Greinacher circuit. The Greinacher voltage doubler is a significant improvement over the Villard circuit for a small cost in additional components. The ripple is much reduced, nominally zero under open-circuit load conditions, but when current is being drawn depends on the resistance of the load and the value of the capacitors used.

  4. Mesh analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_analysis

    Figure 1: Essential meshes of the planar circuit labeled 1, 2, and 3. R 1, R 2, R 3, 1/sC, and sL represent the impedance of the resistors, capacitor, and inductor values in the s-domain. V s and I s are the values of the voltage source and current source, respectively. Mesh analysis (or the mesh current method) is a circuit analysis method for ...

  5. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    In the short-time limit, if the capacitor starts with a certain voltage V, since the voltage drop on the capacitor is known at this instant, we can replace it with an ideal voltage source of voltage V. Specifically, if V=0 (capacitor is uncharged), the short-time equivalence of a capacitor is a short circuit.

  6. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_time_constant...

    Then the resistance seen by the test voltage is found using the circuit in the right panel of Figure 1 and is simply V X / I X = R 1. Form the product C 1 R 1. Add these terms. In effect, it is as though each capacitor charges and discharges through the resistance found in the circuit when the other capacitor is an open circuit.

  7. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    This circuit does not have a resistor like the above, but all tuned circuits have some resistance, causing them to function as an RLC circuit. An RLC circuit is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C), connected in series or in parallel.

  8. Bootstrapping (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(electronics)

    The bootstrap circuit uses a coupling capacitor, formed from the gate/source capacitance of a transistor, to drive a signal line to slightly greater than the supply voltage. [10] Some all-pMOS integrated circuits such as the Intel 4004 and the Intel 8008 use that 2-transistor "bootstrap load" circuit. [11] [12] [13]

  9. Capacitive power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_power_supply

    Analyzing the circuit of the lamp shown in the image, at 50 Hz, the 1.2 μF capacitor has a reactance of 2.653 kΩ. By Ohm's law, the current is limited to 240 V/2653 Ω ≈ 90 mA, assuming that voltage and frequency remain constant. The LEDs are connected in parallel with the 10 μF electrolytic filter capacitor.
