Effective RMS Values










____________________________________________________


I’ve learned that RMS, or Root Mean Square, is the measurement used for any time varying signal's effective value. As they said it is not an "Average" voltage.  Its mathematical relationship to peak voltage varies depending on the type of waveform. By definition, RMS Value, also called the effective or heating value of AC, is equivalent to a DC voltage that would provide the same amount of heat produced in a resistor.
