Abstract: We investigated a method using parallel RL circuits inserted into power distribution network (PDN) of integrated circuits (ICs) to enhance the IC in EMI and PI performance. Optimal damping ...

Previous tutorials have shown the properties and characteristics of simple resistor-only and inductor-only AC circuits. We will now investigate the effects of combining the two components together.

1. Understand the basics: A parallel circuit is an electrical circuit where multiple components are connected in parallel, meaning they have the same potential difference (voltage) across them but ...

For example, often lawnmowers have two switches in series with each other so that both switches need to be pressed before the mower will turn on. The power ring circuit is also a parallel circuit. In ...

If there are no branches then it's a series circuit. If there are branches it's a parallel circuit. In a television series, you get several episodes, one after the other. A series circuit is similar.
