Am I correct in thinking that it would not matter if I place the 100ohm resistor after the 220nF capacitor (as shown in the picture), or before the capacitor?
For a number of reasons, it probably does matter. Where it currently sits means that J "sees" an infinite DC path to ground. But move that resistor to the other side, and signal at J "sees" a DC path of 100Ω to ground. Big difference, where it's important.Infamous911 said:Am I correct in thinking that it would not matter if I place the 100ohm resistor after the 220nF capacitor (as shown in the picture), or before the capacitor?

A resistor is an electronic component that is used to limit the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is designed to resist the flow of electricity and convert electrical energy into heat, which helps to regulate the amount of current in the circuit.
The value of a resistor is measured in ohms (Ω) and can range from a few ohms to millions of ohms. To choose the right resistor, you need to consider the desired amount of resistance, the power rating, and the tolerance. You can use a resistor color code chart or an online calculator to determine the value of a resistor.
Yes, resistors are not polarized and can be connected in either direction in a circuit. However, it is important to make sure that the resistor is connected in the correct location in the circuit and that the leads are securely connected to avoid any malfunctions.
If you use a resistor with a higher value, it will increase the amount of resistance in the circuit, which will reduce the flow of current. This can affect the performance of the circuit and potentially damage other components. If you use a resistor with a lower value, it will decrease the amount of resistance and allow more current to flow, which can also affect the circuit's performance and potentially damage components.
Yes, you can use multiple resistors in a circuit by connecting them in series or parallel. In series, the resistors are connected end-to-end, and the total resistance is the sum of each resistor's individual resistance. In parallel, the resistors are connected side-by-side, and the total resistance is calculated using the reciprocal formula. Using multiple resistors can help achieve the desired resistance value and distribute the current evenly in the circuit.
