  2. Outline • DC and AC circuit • Omh’s Law • Equivalent resistance in series and parallel cuicuits • Exercises & Homework

  3. Direct Current (DC) & Alternating Current (AC) • DC: uni-directional movement of electric charges • AC: the direction of the movement of electric charges reverses periodically

  4. V I Ohm’s Law • Quantifying the relationship between voltage and current • V voltage, volt (V) • I current, amp (A) • R resistance ohm (Ω) R

  5. An Example 3V = Ix 1000 Ω Solve for I: I=3V / 1000 Ω = 3milliAmps I = ? Amps 3V • Determine the current using Ohm’s Law R = 1KΩ

  6. V I Resisters in Series Apply Ohm’s Law on each resister R1 Just one path, currents are equal R2 Equivalent resistance Voltage drops can be added up R3

  7. V I Principles for Resisters in Series • Current remains same in one circle • Voltage can be added up • Equivalent Resistance equal to sum of all resisters in series R1 R2 R3
