resistors - Equivalent Resistance?



How do you find the equivalent resistance here?


How do you find the equivalent resistance here? (I realized it's a Wheatstone bridge, but it's unbalanced, so that doesn't help.) I tried using Kirchhoff's laws, but there is no cell given.




Answer



It looks like irreducible network - network which does not contain series or parallel connections that can be reduced.


You can add some voltage source to X and Y terminals and do mesh analysis.


It is explained in Wikipedia mesh analysis article, and also in this video by Darryl Morrel so I will not explain it here.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
