1
Voltage Drop
• In any closed circuit if current is flowing there must be a
voltage drop across circuit elements.
• This follows OHMS LAW which is recalled as:-
R=V/I

Source Resistance
• There is NO ideal source.
• Every source has some internal resistance.
• This is termed Source Resistance/Impedance.
• When current is drawn there is a voltage drop across this
internal resistance/impedance
• Source resistance limits the amount of power that can be drawn.
Example: Lead Acid cells have very low internal resistance

ElectroMotive Force - EMF
• EMF is the unloaded potential difference between two points.
• The electromotive force of a source is that force which tends to cause a
movement of electricity in a circuit.
• It has an unloaded voltage V which can be transposed to the output
terminals provided no current flows.

when current is flowing in the circuit.

• There is now a potential difference across the load as current is
flowing. The value of which follows Ohm's Law.

Resistance, r
Power, P in Load = V x I
Source
• Power is measured in WATTS.
• The calculation for power in a circuit is Volts multiplied by Amps
P=V.I
and also
P = I2 x R
P = V2 / R
from using Ohms Law for V or I

Potential Dividers
• By connecting resistors in series a potential divider network can
be constructed. This is the basis of Volume controls, trimmers etc
VIN

VOUT
• VOUT can be calculated by proportion without worrying about the
current through the resistors if load is high impedance at VOUT.
VOUT = VIN x R2 / ( R1 + R2 )

Safety Leakage Paths
• Capacitors can hold a lethal charge when open circuit.
• A parallel resistor can provide a safety leakage path to discharge large
value capacitors.
• High value resistors provide a very low current drain across a capacitor.
For example it can make a PSU safer without affecting operation.
• In a circuit this is known as a BLEED RESISTOR.

Capacitance
• Potential difference between A & B. Charge is set in
motion therefore current flows.
• The amount of current is determined by the nature of
the conductor - its Resistance
A
+
B
• Also a potential difference between A & B, but other
than the short time at switch-on NO current will flow.
• However the negative plate will contain an excess of
electrons and the positive plate a deficit.

• The plates are said to be charged and the name given
to the ability to store charge is Capacitance.

Capacitors
• Instead of two ends of wire a capacitor is made up of two or more flat
parallel plates. The capacitance can be calculated.
Dielectric
Metal Plates, Area “A”
Spacing "d"
• The plates have area "A" and are separated by distance "d".
• The space between the plates is filled with an insulating material known
as the DIELECTRIC
• Dielectric can be any insulator - typically Oxides, Plastics, or Ceramic

Capacitance & Charge
• The Unit of Capacitance is the FARAD [after Faraday]
• A capacitance of 1 FARAD is when 1 Coulomb of charge is stored
with 1 Volt PD.
Q = C.V
or
Q/C=V
or
Q/V=C
• One Farad is rather large so uF, nF, pF are more common

Capacitors
•
CAPACITANCE, C is :
– Proportional to the plate area "A".
– Inversely proportional to the distance between the plates "d”
– Depends upon the material used for the dielectric.
•
This can be written as C = 0 r A / d where
C
is in Farads
A
is area of each plate in square metres
d
is distance between plates in metres.
• ε0
• εr
ε ε
- A constant known as the permittivity of free space
[or vacuum, dry air] having a value of 8.854 x 10-12 .
- [or “k”] Relative permittivity of the dielectric, chosen for
its TEMPERATURE STABILITY, BREAKDOWN VOLTAGE

Capacitance Formula &
Dielectric Materials
The formula
C = ε0 εr A / d
C=K.A/d
is also written as
where
K = ε0 εr
• The dielectric type in a capacitor will depend upon the function the
capacitor is to perform in a circuit.
• As frequency increases dielectric loss increases,
• Each dielectric also has different breakdown voltages.
• Each material will suffer a change in properties due to temperature, this
will affect the capacity.
• Typical εr - Air=1, PTFE=2, Mica=5, ceramics ~10, Hi-k ceramics ~10000

• The charge on them is dependent upon the capacitor value.
