  1. voltage divider

    A voltage divider is an electrical circuit or configuration of components, usually resistors, designed to proportionally divide the input voltage through parallel connections to get lower output voltage. The output voltage is a fraction of the input voltage determined by the ratio of the resistances in the circuit. Voltage dividers are typically used to reduce voltage for use in electronic devices for the purpose of monitoring voltages, creating reference voltage or in combination with other components to create signal attenuators or filters.
