Simplification Method. Loop Analysis Method. Node Analysis Method. 3) Repeat step 1 for each of the other independent sources. 4) Find the total contribution by adding algebraically all the contributions due to all the independent sources. 5 Previously on ELCN102 Thevenin’s Theorem A linear two-terminal circuit, can be replaced by an equivalent circuit consisting of a voltage source ππ‘β in series with a resistor π π‘β . 6 Previously on ELCN102 Steps of Thevenin’s Theorem 1) Identify the load resistance and introduce two nodes π and π 2) Remove the load resistance between node π and π 3) Calculate the open circuit voltage between nodes π and π. This voltage is ππ‘β of the Thevenin equivalent circuit. 4) Set all the independent sources to zero (voltage sources are SC and current sources are OC) and calculate the resistance seen between nodes π and π. This resistance is π π‘β of the Thevenin equivalent circuit. 7 Network Theorems Definition Electric circuit theorems are always beneficial to help find voltage and currents in multi loop circuits.

This resistance is π π of the Norton equivalent circuit. 3) Replace the load resistance with a short circuit and calculate the short circuit current between nodes π and π. This current is πΌπ of the Norton equivalent circuit. 13 Norton’s Theorem Example (1) Find the current in the 1πΎΩ resistor using Norton’s theorem. 14 Norton’s Theorem Example (2) For the shown circuit, use Norton’s theorem to find the load current πΌπΏ . 15 Network Theorems Definition Electric circuit theorems are always beneficial to help find voltage and currents in multi loop circuits.
