  2. RKM code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RKM_code

    For example, 8K2 indicates a resistor value of 8.2 kΩ. Additional zeros imply tighter tolerance, for example 15M0. When the value can be expressed without the need for a prefix, an "R" or "F" is used instead of the decimal separator. For example, 1R2 indicates 1.2 Ω, and 18R indicates 18 Ω.

  3. Tolerance analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_analysis

    The immediate value to this method is that the output is smooth, but it fails to account for geometric misalignment allowed for by the tolerances; if a size dimension is placed between two parallel surfaces, it is assumed the surfaces will remain parallel, even though the tolerance does not require this.

  4. Load regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_regulation

    The values of the resistors are selected such that R 1 gives the highest load resistance, R 1 ||R 2 gives the nominal load resistance and either R 1 ||R 2 ||R 3 or R 2 ||R 3 gives the lowest load resistance. A voltmeter is then connected in parallel to the resistors and the measured values of voltage for each load state can be used to calculate ...

  5. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.

  6. Norton's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norton's_theorem

    At a pair of terminals of the network, it can be replaced by a current source and a single resistor in parallel. For alternating current (AC) systems the theorem can be applied to reactive impedances as well as resistances. The Norton equivalent circuit is used to represent any network of linear sources and impedances at a given frequency.

  7. Engineering tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    This is just one example for linear tolerances for a 100 mm value. This is just one of the 8 defined ranges (30–120 mm). Engineering tolerance is the permissible limit or limits of variation in: a physical dimension; a measured value or physical property of a material, manufactured object, system, or service;

  8. Source transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_transformation

    Source transformations are easy to compute using Ohm's law.If there is a voltage source in series with an impedance, it is possible to find the value of the equivalent current source in parallel with the impedance by dividing the value of the voltage source by the value of the impedance.

  9. Zero-ohm link - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-ohm_link

    A zero-ohm link or zero-ohm resistor is a wire link packaged in the same physical package format as a resistor. It is used to connect traces on a printed circuit board (PCB). This format allows it to be placed on the circuit board using the same automated equipment used to place other resistors, instead of requiring a separate machine to ...
