If you want to measure resistance and you know Ohm’s law, it seems like you have an easy answer, right? Feed a known current through the thing you want to measure and read the voltage required. A ...

In the first part of this series on the highs and lows of resistance measurements, I discussed the basic principles for making two- and 4-wire resistance measurements for measuring resistances of less ...

While ac internal resistance (ACIR) measurements are quite common and somewhat standardized when measuring lithium-ion cells, dc internal resistance (DCIR) measurements are nonstandard and generally ...

The majority of metal traces used to produce electrical connections in semiconductor devices begin life as blanket metal films that are later patterned and etched to create conductive connections ...

Insulation failure is the root cause of many electrical conductors and equipment failures. When insulation fails, not only can equipment be damaged, but fire and shock can also result. Ideally, when ...

As countries around the world strive to reduce their carbon footprints and seek sustainable energy resources, the solar energy industry has experienced significant growth. Among the diverse process ...

Let's start with DC voltage, one of the simplest and most-used multimeter measurements. The DC voltage measurement is used to determine the difference in electrical potential between two points in a ...

In the second part of this series on the highs and lows of resistance measurements, I illustrated the differences between two-wire and four-wire resistance measurements on an actual low ohmic sample ...
