Question 13

How to Thevenize a Given Circuit?

Answer 13

1. Temporarily remove the resistance (called load resistance RL
2. Find the open-circuit voltage Voc
3. Compute the resistance of the network
4. Replace the entire network with a single Thevenin source,.
5. Connect RL back to its terminals
6. calculate the current flowing through RL

Question 14

Used to transform a circuit into a smaller yet equivalent
circuit by a current source (Short Circuit Current) in
parallel with Thevenin’s resistance and parallel with load
resistor

Answer 14

Norton’s Theorem

Question 15

How To Nortonize a Given Circuit?

Answer 15

1. Remove the resistance
2. Compute the short-circuit current ISC.
3. Remove all voltage sources but retain their internal
   resistances
   4 find the network’s resistance RN as looked into from the given terminals. It is the same as Rth.
4. The current source (ISC) joined in parallel across Ri
   between the two terminals gives Norton’s equivalent circuit.

Question 16

particularly useful for
analyzing communication networks. The overall efficiency
of a network supplying maximum power to any branch is
50 percent.

Answer 16

Maximum
Power Transfer
Theorem

Question 17

transferred to the load when the load
resistance equals the Thevenin resistance as seen from the
load (RL = RTh).

Answer 17

Maximum Power

Question 18

combination of Thevenin’s and
Norton’s theorems.

Answer 18

Theorem

Question 19

It is used for finding the common
voltage across any network that contains several
parallel voltage sources

Answer 19

Millman’s
Theorem

Question 20

To solve for branch currents, each resistor voltage drop
can be divided by its respective resistance (I=E/R)
