Quite analogous to the voltage divider, which you had obtained from a series circuit of resistors, can you use the parallel circuit to divide currents.

By changing resistors with different resistances values in a parallel circuit, you can divide the current in any desired ratio. In the shown circuit flows a total current of 13 mA...
Power dividers are widely used in measuring instruments. |
