    I Inductance Measurement: Error Due To Series Resistance

    Hi! Please refer to the word file. I am thinking of measuring inductance of an inductor by applying a DC voltage onto it. Then, calculate L = V/(di/dt). I wonder if the series resistance (R) of the voltage source plus of the inductor under test would cause much error. So, I derive the...

    How do you calculate the series resistance for this Triac control circuit?

    Disclaimer: Some of you might easily recognize that the components and circuit I am talking about are related to one of my projects, on which I had posted some months ago. Actually, the circuit is the same as the one in my project, but the one I am posting in this thread actually uses high...

    How shunt and series resistance in a PV cell changes? Or are they stable?

    i really need help about shunt and series resistances i just want to know if they are constant or variable ? if they are variable what make them increase or decrease?

    How will the voltage, current and resistance be distributed

    I have a lab to work through tomorrow morning and i need to be able to explain how the voltage, current and resistance in the compound circuit diagram below is distributed, and write an equation which can be used to measure the total resistance of the circuit. I know that when you normally try...

    Finding series and shunt resistance of solar cell

    Hi, I am trying to find out series and shunt resistance of solar cell from I-V curve which starts from Isc and going to Voc. I read some papers and for single illumination mostly said Rs= -(dv/dI)V=Voc and Rsh= -(dv/dI)I=Isc. so I am finidng Rs from slope between points from Vmax to Voc, and...

    Series resistors' output voltage

    In my electrical engineering textbook, in the section with voltage dividers, it says that after you combine two series resistors, then the output voltage can no longer be defined. It then said that thus the equivalence was made strictly from a voltage source standpoint. I do not understand why...

    Solution to series resistance function

    Hi, I cannot solve for the function g(t) (eq. 6) in the attached figure where there are two series resistances. My solution is incomplete. I do not know how to use Vx in this solution, which is needed because it contains h(t) found in the solution.

    Constant current for series resistance

    How do resistors of different resistances in series maintain constant current throughout a circuit? I mean is not the current supposed to decrease (within the resistor only) while going through the resistors? Need quick reply.

    Equivalent series resistance of antenna?

    Hi! We entered a competition, and got the following question: Modern hearing instruments use wireless communication between the two ears to optimize the performance of the sound processing. The wireless link is typically a magnetic link in the lower MHz range. With this kind of link, each...

    Series Resistance with Ansoft Maxwell SV for coax

    Hello, can anyone assist me in building a geometric model of an RG58 coax cable with Ansoft Maxwell SV using the appropriate solver to solve for the series impedance of the cable per unit lenght. The Ansoft Help files available do not cover this.
