Single Loop Circuit
• The same current
flows through each
element of the
circuit—the elements
are in series
• We will consider
circuits consisting of
voltage sources and
resistors

In General: Single Loop
• The current i(t) is:
 VSi sum of voltage sources
i (t ) 

 Rj
sum of resistances
• This approach works for any single loop
circuit with voltage sources and resistors
• Resistors in series

Equivalent Resistance
If we wish to replace the two parallel
resistors with a single resistor whose
voltage-current relationship is the same, the
equivalent resistor has a value of:
R1R2
Req 
R1  R2
Definition: Parallel - the elements share the
same two end nodes

multiple parallel resistors

• For 2 parallel resistors, it reduces to a

Multiple Current Sources
• We find an equivalent current source by
algebraically summing current sources
• As before, we find an equivalent
resistance
• We find V as equivalent I times equivalent
R
• We then find any necessary currents using
Ohm’s law

Superposition
“In any linear circuit containing multiple
independent sources, the current or voltage
at any point in the circuit may be calculated
as the algebraic sum of the individual
contributions of each source acting alone.”
Lect3
EEE 202
19
How to Apply Superposition
• To find the contribution due to an individual
independent source, zero out the other
independent sources in the circuit
– Voltage source  short circuit
– Current source  open circuit
• Solve the resulting circuit using your
favorite technique(s)

Superposition Procedure
1. For each independent voltage and current
source (repeat the following):
a) Replace the other independent voltage sources with
a short circuit (i.e., V = 0).
b) Replace the other independent current sources with
an open circuit (i.e., I = 0).
Note: Dependent sources are not changed!
c) Calculate the contribution of this particular voltage or
current source to the desired output parameter.
2. Algebraically sum the individual contributions
(current and/or voltage) from each independent
source.
