5V 800mA
Many things operate using Electricity. Why? How to make the electricity?
Faraday’s Law
Practical Electricity Generator Turbine
Coil Placement
3-phase system L1 N S L2 L3 N
Electric Outlet N L1 GND Alternating Current AC
5V 800mA Can this be used? Why?
Need an AC – DC converter. How does it look like?

Water We cannot see electric current. We need a metaphor. Which thing has similar property with electricity?? Water
Metaphor Electricity is similar to water flow. Water flows from high level to low level. Electricity flows from high voltage to low voltage. High Voltage Low Voltage
Measurement of Electricity Since we use electricity to do work for us, how Can we measure its energy? How can we measure the water power? Think about a water gun. High Voltage Low Voltage strong (fast, high kinetic energy) amount of water Voltage Current
Imagine the water power at the outlet
Electric Potential (ศักย์ไฟฟ้า) Which water drop has more impact force at the ground? Potential Energy (Height) transform Kinetic Energy (Velocity) Electric potential can be compared with the height of the water drop from the reference ground
Ground: Reference Point Normally, we measure height compared to the sea level. Also, electric potential at a point can be measured compared to the electric potential at the ground. Unit: Volt (V) Electric potential, or voltage has a unit “volt”. Ground always has 0 volts.
Voltage (ความต่างศักย์) Voltage is a difference of electric potential between 2 points Unit: Volt Compare to the height of 2 water drops
Electric Current (กระแส) Low current High current
Electric Current Unit Unit: Ampere, Amp (A) Note: Both current and voltage have directions
What is Circuit Analysis about? To calculate voltage or current at some points and some time in electric circuits

Components Electric sources Independent Sources – voltage, current Resistors Measurement Devices Ammeters: measure current Voltmeters: measure voltage Ground – reference point Electric Wire
Symbol Independent Independent Voltage Current Source Source Resistor Ground Electric wire
General Rules All points on a same electric wire have the same voltage. A voltage source always have voltage difference of its pins equal to its value. A current source always have current pass through it equal to its value. Ground always has zero voltage. (0 volts)
Electric Flow Rule Electric current flows from high voltage to low voltage when there is a path. Electric current can freely pass through electric wire. Electric current can flow through a resistor with the amount according to Ohm’s law. Electric current can flow through a voltage source with the amount depended on other components in the circuit. Electric current can flow pass a current source according to its value.

Simple DC Circuit Current
Metaphor Increasing V is compared to ? Increasing R is compared to ? Current Increasing V is compared to ? Increasing R is compared to ?
Ohm’s Law V = IR Voltage (Volts) = for using with a resistor only V = IR Voltage (Volts) = current (Amperes) x resistance (Ohms) 2A 2Ω x+4 volts x volts Note: Electric wire has a resistance of 0 ohms
Electric Current 1A 1A 1A Every point in the circuit has current = 1A
Electric Voltage x + 1 Volts x Volts
Ground Ground = reference point always have voltage = 0 volts 1 Volts
Electric Voltage (2) 1 Volts 0 Volts 0 Volts
Electric Voltage (3) 1 Volts 1 Volts 0 Volts 1 Volts
Negative Voltage and Current + 2 volts - - -2 volts + Same as 1 A -1 A Same as
Power Symbol P has a unit of Watt P = VI I + V - Absorb power I - V + Generate power
Passive Sign Convention Absorb power: Power has a sign + Generate power: Power has a sign -
Example 2.5mA DC source generates power = 10V * -2.5mA = - 25mW Resistor absorbs power = 10V * 2.5mA = 25mW Note: Resistors always absorb power but DC source can either generate or absorb power
Direction of Voltage & Current on Resistors + - - + Resistor always absorb power. Therefore, it always have current flow through it from high voltage pin to low voltage pin.
