Another DC Circuit Lesson with CircuitBread – Kirchhoff’s Current and Voltage Laws

Digilent, an Emerson company, has created another DC Circuit lesson in partnership with CircuitBread.  This third lesson teaches about Kirchhoff’s Current and Voltage Laws, also known as KCL and KVL. 

The last two lessons have been laying the foundation of circuit analysis by identifying fundamental components of electricity and electricity-controlling components.  With KCL and KVL, students will be able to analyze more complex circuits by utilizing the theory of conservation of charge and conservation of energy.  With these tools, engineers gain a better understanding of how circuits work, are able to solve for voltages and currents in a much larger set of circuits and are given the tools to start considering design considerations of circuits.  

The written lesson is found on CircuitBread’s website: https://www.circuitbread.com/tutorials/solving-circuits-using-kcl-and-kvl-dc-circuits

The YouTube video that accompanies this lesson is here:

These lessons also have accompanying practical videos that show how, using Digilent’s Discovery 3,  the theories taught can be applied in real-life applications.  We are committed to helping students and hobbyists with our inexpensive yet powerful testing tools and also through this high-quality educational content. To learn more about the desktop tools Digilent offers to both professionals and students, please visit our product line and other reference materials.  To understand CircuitBread’s vision for electrical engineering and electronics education, check out their website at CircuitBread.com.
