Lecture 4-2: Voltage Dividers Explained | Series Circuits & Voltage Drop

In this lecture we explore Voltage Dividers, one of the most important tools for analyzing series circuits. We begin by understanding the difference between voltage potential and voltage drop, and how voltage is measured relative to ground in a circuit. From there, we build toward the voltage divider concept, which allows us to determine how voltage distributes across resistors in series. Topics covered in this lecture include: • Voltage potential vs voltage drop • Measuring voltage relative to ground • How voltage distributes across resistors in series circuits • The Voltage Divider Formula • Step-by-step worked examples • Using potentiometers as adjustable voltage dividers These concepts are foundational for circuit analysis and appear frequently in real electrical and control systems. This lecture is part of the Circuit Controls / Introduction to Controls series and is designed for students learning the fundamentals of electrical circuits.
