Electrical Resistance
Electrical resistance opposes current flow. Measured in ohms, fundamental to circuit design. Ohm law relates voltage, current, and resistance.
Resistance Fundamentals
Electrical resistance (R) in ohms (Ω). Opposition to current flow. Higher resistance = less current for given voltage.
Material Properties
Conductors: low resistance (copper: ~17 nΩ⋅m). Semiconductors: variable resistance. Insulators: very high resistance.
Temperature Effects
Metal resistance increases with temperature. Semiconductor resistance decreases with temperature. Critical for thermal design.
Common Applications
Circuit design, heating elements, current limiting, voltage division, and thermal management.
Conversion Tips
Ohm law: V = IR. Wire resistance depends on length, area, and material. Heating elements use high resistance materials.
