If you have ever read advanced textbooks or papers about electronics, you may have been surprised to see the use of complex numbers used in the analysis of AC circuits. A complex number has two parts: ...

Last month, we clarified the definition of a vector and showed you how vectors are added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided. This month, we'll see how to use vectors in defining a complex circuit ...

Inductance is the link between electric circuits and magnetic fields. Voltage and current sine waves are in-phase when they peak and cross the zero axis at the same time. However, this rarely happens ...
