  • potential divider


  • a series circuit with more than one resistor meant to divide the PD into a smaller specific PD

New cards
  • the formula for Vout


  • Vout = (R2/(R1 + R2)) × Vin


3
New cards
  • the relationship between the ratio of resistance and the ratio of PD between two resistors


  • ratio of R between two resistors = ratio of V across two resistors


4
New cards
  • the formula for the resistance ratio and the PD ratio


  • V1/V2 = R1/R2
