A '''resistor–inductor circuit''' ('''RL circuit'''), or '''RL filter''' or '''RL network''', is an [[electric circuit]] composed of [[resistor]]s and [[inductor]]s driven by a [[voltage source|voltage]] or [[current source]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-08-24 |title=RL Circuit: Formula, Equitation & Diagram {{!}} Linquip |url=https://www.linquip.com/blog/what-is-rl-circuit/ |access-date=2022-03-16 |language=en-US}}</ref> A first-order RL circuit is composed of one resistor and one inductor, either in [[series and parallel circuits#Series circuits|series]] driven by a voltage source or in [[series and parallel circuits#Parallel circuits|parallel]] driven by a current source. It is one of the simplest [[Analogue filter|analogue]] [[infinite impulse response]] [[electronic filter]]s.
