Steps for Mesh Analysis 1. Identify all meshes. 2. Discard border meshes that contain an outer current source. 3. Remaining meshes = unknown mesh currents (variables to solve for). 4.

Modified Nodal Analysis (MNA) • Nodal analysis solves only for node voltages • MNA solves for node voltages & auxiliary currents • Auxiliary currents are currents through voltage sources and shorts, control currents and output currents. • Steps for MNA: 1. Choose a reference node and identify essential nodes. 2. Discard essential nodes connected to grounded voltage source(s) as long as they have no auxiliary current(s). 4. Circle floating voltage sources that have no auxiliary current(s) to form super nodes 5. Write KCL at each super node and each unknown node voltage that was not discarded in (2) 6. Write a terminal equation for each super node in term of unknown node voltages. 7. Write a terminal equation for each branch containing an auxiliary current.
Nodal vs. Mesh Analysis • For computers: easier to identify nodes than meshes. • For non-planar circuits ( circuits with crossings): difficulty defining meshes (Example 4.11 p. 108). • For a circuit with n nodes and b branches: • Nodal analysis: • KCL at (n-1) nodes • (n-1) linearly independent equations • solve for (n-1) variables. • Mesh analysis: • KVL at (b-n+1) nodes • (b-n+1) linearly independent equations • solve for (b-n+1) variables.
