Questioning of fundamentals of current flow

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the principles of electrical circuits, specifically addressing why voltage remains constant in parallel circuits while current remains the same in series circuits. It highlights Kirchhoff's Voltage/Loop Rule as a foundational concept derived from the conservation of charge. Additionally, the conversation touches on the significance of voltage changes as signals in digital circuits, emphasizing the role of voltage stability in parallel configurations.

Although i do understand how current is same in electrical components in series.. but why does the voltage remain constant in parallel?

Also since voltage remains constant in parallel, is that the reason change in voltage is generally chosen as the signal in digital circuits?
