  2. Voltage divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_divider

    The divider output (V out) appears on the connector adjacent to the cable. A voltage divider can be used to scale down a very high voltage so that it can be measured by a volt meter. The high voltage is applied across the divider, and the divider output—which outputs a lower voltage that is within the meter's input range—is measured by the ...

  3. CPU core voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_core_voltage

    A dual-voltage CPU uses a split-rail design so the processor core can use a lower voltage, while the external Input/Output (I/O) voltages remain at 3.3 volts (or 5 volts for older CPU's) for backwards compatibility. A single-voltage CPU uses a single power voltage throughout the chip, supplying both I/O power and internal power.

  4. Voltage drop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_drop

    In electronics, voltage drop is the decrease of electric potential along the path of a current flowing in a circuit. Voltage drops in the internal resistance of the source, across conductors, across contacts, and across connectors are undesirable because some of the energy supplied is dissipated.

  5. Coefficients of potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficients_of_potential

    The coefficients of potential are the coefficients p ij. φ i should be correctly read as the potential on the i -th conductor, and hence " p 21 {\displaystyle p_{21}} " is the p due to charge 1 on conductor 2.

  6. Voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage

    Voltage, also known as (electrical) potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension is the difference in electric potential between two points. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In a static electric field , it corresponds to the work needed per unit of charge to move a positive test charge from the first point to the second point.

  7. Voltage droop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_droop

    Conversely, when the output current is (near) zero, the voltage at the load is higher. This follows from Ohm's law. Rather than increasing output voltage at high current to try to maintain the same load voltage, droop instead simply allows this drop to take place and designs around it. The behaviour of the system with and without droop is as ...

  8. Open-circuit voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_voltage

    The potential difference mentioned for batteries and cells is usually the open-circuit voltage. The value of the open-circuit voltage of a transducer equals its electromotive force (emf), which is the maximum potential difference it can produce when not providing current.

  9. Nodal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodal_analysis

    Kirchhoff's current law is the basis of nodal analysis. In electric circuits analysis, nodal analysis, node-voltage analysis, or the branch current method is a method of determining the voltage (potential difference) between "nodes" (points where elements or branches connect) in an electrical circuit in terms of the branch currents.
