This guide provides an overview of network topology diagrams, which are used to illustrate the physical and logical connections between devices in a network. It explains the different types of topology diagrams, including star, bus, ring, mesh, and tree top
The circuit topology of an electronic circuit is the form taken by the network of interconnections of the circuit components. Different specific values or ratings of the components are regarded as being the same topology. Topology is not concerned with the physical layout of components in a circuit, nor with their positions on a circuit diagram; similarly to the mathematical concept of topology, it is only concerned with what connections exist between the components. Numerous physical layouts and circuit diagrams may all amount to the same topology.
