Current Divider Circuits are parallel circuits in which the source or supply current divides into a number of parallel paths. In a parallel connected circuit, all the components have their terminals connected together sharing the same two end nodes. This results in different paths and branches for the current to flow or pass along. However, the currents can have different values through each component. The main characteristic of parallel circuits is that while they may produce different currents flowing through different branches, the voltage is common to all the connected paths. That is VR1 = VR2 = VR3 … etc. Therefore the need to find the individual resistor voltages is eliminated allowing branch currents to be easily found with Kirchhoff’s Current Law, (KCL) and of course Ohm’s Law. ......................................................................................................................
