Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) The algebraic sum of all the currents at any node in a circuit equals zero. • Therefore: • Assign signs to currents at each node • Positive (+) for current leaving a node • Negative (-) for current entering a node • Or vice versa
Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law (KVL) The algebraic sum of all the voltages around any closed path in a circuit equals zero. • Therefore: • Assign signs to voltages in a loop • Positive (+) for voltage rise • Negative (-) for voltage drop • Or vice versa
Observations • 7 equations 4 equations • Because I and V are related through R, we only need one • With only 2 branches at a node (in series), we only need to know 1 current
