  2. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    A circuit composed solely of components connected in series is known as a series circuit; likewise, one connected completely in parallel is known as a parallel circuit. Many circuits can be analyzed as a combination of series and parallel circuits, along with other configurations .

  3. Ladder logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladder_logic

    Ladder logic has contacts that make or break circuits to control coils. Each coil or contact corresponds to the status of a single bit in the programmable controller's memory. Unlike electromechanical relays, a ladder program can refer any number of times to the status of a single bit, equivalent to a relay with an indefinitely large number of ...

  4. Equivalent circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_circuit

    In electrical engineering, an equivalent circuit refers to a theoretical circuit that retains all of the electrical characteristics of a given circuit. Often, an equivalent circuit is sought that simplifies calculation, and more broadly, that is a simplest form of a more complex circuit in order to aid analysis . [ 1 ]

  5. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    In hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), power electronics are used in two formats: series hybrid and parallel hybrid. The difference between a series hybrid and a parallel hybrid is the relationship of the electric motor to the internal combustion engine (ICE). Devices used in electric vehicles consist mostly of dc/dc converters for battery ...

  6. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    A parallel resonant circuit can be used as load impedance in output circuits of RF amplifiers. Due to high impedance, the gain of amplifier is maximum at resonant frequency. Both parallel and series resonant circuits are used in induction heating. LC circuits behave as electronic resonators, which are a key component in many applications ...

  7. Parallel processing (DSP implementation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_Processing_(DSP...

    In order to maintain the same sample rate, the clock period of the N-parallel circuit increases to N times the propagation delay of the original circuit. It makes the charging time prolongs N times. The supply voltage can be reduced to βV 0. Therefore, the power consumption of the N-parallel system can be formulated as

  8. AC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

    A capacitor start motor is a split-phase induction motor with a starting motor capacitor inserted in series with the startup winding, creating an LC circuit which produces a greater phase shift (and so, a much greater starting torque) than both split-phase and shaded pole motors. This motor has a centrifugal switch which disconnects the ...

  9. DC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_motor

    A simple DC motor has a stationary set of magnets in the stator and an armature with one or more windings of insulated wire wrapped around a soft iron core that concentrates the magnetic field. The windings usually have multiple turns around the core, and in large motors there can be several parallel current paths.
