Kirchhoff Laws

Kirchhoff Current Law

The algebraic sum of all the currents entering and leaving a node is zero. Based on principle of conversation of charge.

Kirchhoff Voltage Law

The algebraic sum of voltages around a loop is zero. Based on principle of conversation of energy.

Voltage division

Series connection is used to divide voltage. Potentiometeres are commonly used to create voltage divider circuits.

Current division

Parallel connection is used to divide current.
