E N D
Where are we? • Chapter 2 - The basic concepts and practice at analyzing simple electric circuits with sources and resistors • Chapter 3 – More harder networks to analyze and the notion of equivalent circuits • Chapter 4 – Capacitors and inductors added to the mix • Chapter 5 – Analyzing transient situations in complex passive networks • Chapter 8 – New subject – the wonders of operational amplifiers as system elements • Chapter 9 – Introduction to semiconductors – the basics and diodes – more network analysis • Chapter 10 – Bipolar junction transistors and how they work – now you can build your own op amp
What’s Important in Chapter 3 • Definitions • Nodal Analysis • Mesh Analysis • The Principle of Superposition • Thevenin and Norton Equivalent Circuits • Condition for Maximum Power Transfer
1. Definitions • Principle of Superposition • Equivalent circuit • Thevenin theorem • Norton theorem • One-port networks • Source loading • Node voltages • Branch currents • “Ground” • KCL • Nodal Analysis • Mesh currents • KVL • Mesh Analysis
2. Nodal Analysis • Used to “analyze” circuits • Solve for currents, voltages, power, etc., throughout circuits • Applies KCL to nodes • Often used in concert with Ohm’s Law
Node Method • Find nodes – Identify ground node • Label branch currents & node voltages • Node voltages, if not defined by a voltage source, are independent variables • Write KCL for nodes • Solve for unknowns

4. The Principle of Superposition • When working with linear circuits, can find the solution for each energy source and combine the results • Procedure: • Remove all but one energy source • V sources wires • I sources opens • Solve the circuit • Repeat for a different energy source • Add up the solutions
I 5. Thévenin and Norton Equivalent Circuits RT • Thévenin Theorem When viewed from the load, any network composed of ideal voltage and current sources and of linear resistors, may be represented by an equivalent circuit consisting of an ideal voltage source VT in series with an equivalent resistance RT VT
I I Thévenin and Norton Equivalent Circuits • Norton Theorem When viewed from the load, any network composed of ideal voltage and current sources and of linear resistors, may be represented by an equivalent circuit consisting of an ideal current source IN in parallel with an equivalent resistance RN IN RN
Thévenin Equivalence • Equivalent Resistance • Remove load • Zero all current and voltage sources • V sources wires • I sources opens • Compute the resistance between the load terminals • Equivalent Voltage • Remove the load • Define VOC as the open-circuit voltage across the load terminals • Solve for VOC
