SuperPosition
Purpose: To use lab environment and measured data to verify That SuperPosition is a value and
useful Circuit analysis technique.
Part 1:
1. Construct the circuit in figure 1 on your breadboard. You will be using the 2 variable
power supplies today. Notice the polarity of each in the circuit.
Figure 1
2. After constructing the circuit “Turn Off” the voltage supply V1.
3. Using the DMM measure the voltage across each resistor in the circuit and record the
values.
4. “Turn on” V1 and “Turn off” V2.
5. Using the DMM measure the voltage across each resistor in the circuit and record the
values.
6. Turn V2 back on.
7. Using the DMM measure the voltage across each resistor in the circuit and record the
values.
8. Using the measured data verify that the addition of the voltages measured in steps 3
and 5 are equal to the voltages measured for each resistor in step 7.
Part 2:
1. Use LTSpice to validate all your work.
