  2. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    v. t. e. A series RLC network (in order): a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor. Tuned circuit of a shortwave radio transmitter. 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 ...

  3. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    Series and parallel circuits. A series circuit with a voltage source (such as a battery, or in this case a cell) and three resistance units. Two-terminal components and electrical networks can be connected in series or parallel. The resulting electrical network will have two terminals, and itself can participate in a series or parallel topology.

  4. Inductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductor

    An inductor, also called a coil, choke, or reactor, is a passive two-terminal electrical component that stores energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it. [1] An inductor typically consists of an insulated wire wound into a coil. When the current flowing through the coil changes, the time-varying magnetic field induces an ...

  5. Wheeler incremental inductance rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheeler_Incremental...

    Stripline illustrating the incremental Wheeler inductance rule. The incremental inductance rule, attributed to Harold Alden Wheeler [1] by Gupta [2]: 101 and others [3]: 80 is a formula used to compute skin effect resistance and internal inductance in parallel transmission lines when the frequency is high enough that the skin effect is fully developed.

  6. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    Inductance is the tendency of an electrical conductor to oppose a change in the electric current flowing through it. The electric current produces a magnetic field around the conductor. The magnetic field strength depends on the magnitude of the electric current, and follows any changes in the magnitude of the current.

  7. Equivalent series resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_resistance

    Equivalent series resistance. Capacitors and inductors as used in electric circuits are not ideal components with only capacitance or inductance. However, they can be treated, to a very good degree of approximation, as being ideal capacitors and inductors in series with a resistance; this resistance is defined as the equivalent series ...

  8. Electrical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resonance

    An RLC circuit (or LCR circuit) is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor, connected in series or in parallel. The RLC part of the name is due to those letters being the usual electrical symbols for resistance, inductance and capacitance respectively. The circuit forms a harmonic oscillator for current and ...

  9. Leakage inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leakage_inductance

    Fig. 1 L P σ and L S σ are primary and secondary leakage inductances expressed in terms of inductive coupling coefficient under open-circuited conditions.. The magnetic circuit's flux that does not interlink both windings is the leakage flux corresponding to primary leakage inductance L P σ and secondary leakage inductance L S σ.
