Wonderful Circuit Diagram Ground
At room temperature the thermistor offers its nominal value of near 100kω.
Circuit diagram ground. Thus the greater the resistance of a component the more voltage that. In part 13 of this series on ground circuits we look at reading the schematic diagram first. When you use your finger or even the actual circuit with your eyes it is easy to mistrace the circuit.
This reference point is known as ground or gnd and carries a voltage of 0v. In electronics and electrical engineering it is by convention we define a point in a circuit as a reference point. And to simplify drawing the circuit we use a symbol.
When you make sure at least one side of your circuit is common to earth ground it presents no shock hazard for a. Two circuits share a common path to ground. Voltage is defined as a difference of electric potentials.
To measure the potential at a single point using a voltmeter a reference point must be specified to measure against. This symbol belongs on your home wiring plan. Circuit ground versus earth.
That is a voltage measurement must be compared to another point in the circuit. It can also go on a schematic diagram to indicate the earth ground of an antenna system. Grounding something simply means connecting it to ground.
Voltage measurements are relative measurements. If a technician were to touch an earth ground instead of the electrons sinking into the person they would sink into the earth. How this circuit works is we form a voltage divider circuit between the 100kω thermistor and a 50kω fixed resistor.
