Ohm's Law

The relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit. It states that voltage is equal to the product of current and resistance (V = IR).

Passive Components

Components in an electronic circuit that don't amplify or generate signals. Examples include resistors, capacitors, and inductors.

Operational Amplifier (Op-Amp)

An electronic circuit component designed to amplify the difference between two input voltages. It has high gain and is commonly used in analog circuits.

Ideal Op-Amp

A theoretical Op-Amp model with infinite gain, infinite input impedance, and zero output impedance.
