This parallel circuit contains a resistor and a lamp. A current of 5 A flows through the cell. The current splits at the junction. 3 A flows through the resistor and 2 A flows through the bulb.

In this circuit the following applies. When resistors are connected in parallel, the supply current is equal to the sum of the currents through each resistor. The currents in the branches of a ...

These old 1N5305 current limiting diode ... resistor to its gate which maintains a fixed current output. To demonstrate the simplicity of such a component, [Eric] constructs a current limiting ...

The circuit in ... switching a 2.2 K resistor in parallel with the LEDs. When turned on by the PIC, this transistor causes roughly a 10 mA current to flow through the Zener diode and its series ...
