# Circuit Diagrams in LaTeX

> Draw electrical circuit diagrams in LaTeX using circuitikz with symbols, labels, and common layouts.

Use `circuitikz` for publication-ready circuit diagrams.

## Basic Circuit

```latex circuitikz-basic.tex theme={null}
\usepackage{circuitikz}

\begin{circuitikz}
\draw (0,0) to[battery1,l=$V$] (0,3)
      to[R,l=$R_1$] (3,3)
      to[C,l=$C_1$] (3,0) -- (0,0);
\end{circuitikz}
```

## Annotated Example

```latex circuitikz-annotated.tex theme={null}
\begin{circuitikz}
\draw (0,0) to[sV,l=$5\,\mathrm{V}$] (0,2)
      to[R,l=$1\,\mathrm{k\Omega}$] (3,2)
      to[led,l=LED] (3,0) -- (0,0);
\end{circuitikz}
```
