Working of Linear Circuit Elements
Linear circuit elements are those, where V-I characteristics follows only one equation of straight line passing through origin for all the time. Linear elements are those that characteristics are straight line and passing through the origin.
Working of Linear circuit elements include, these Linear circuit elements follows ohm’s law:
Ohm’s Law
The potential difference in volts V, across the terminals of a given metallic wire in an electric circuit is directly proportional to the current flowing I through it, given its temperature remains the same.
This is known as Ohm’s law. In other words, it can be written as: Potential difference across the ends ∝ Current
or
V ∝ I
The linear circuit elements which obeys ohm’s law is resistor, capacitor, inductor, transformer and many other components.
Linear Circuit Elements
In Power Electronics, Linear circuit elements are those elements that are not changed with respect to the voltage and current. Elements that follow ohm’s law are called linear circuit elements. Linear circuit elements mainly resist, store, or control the flow of electric current or voltage in a circuit without actively amplifying or generating signals.
Linear Circuit Elements can be used to connect together within the circuit in a series combination or parallel combination to control the current flow in complex circuits. In this article, we will learn about the role of Linear Circuit Elements in power electronics, their properties, working, advantages, disadvantages, and applications of linear circuit elements in power electronics.
