Network Analysis (resistive) Flashcards
1
Q
What is Thevenin’s Theorem?
A
Every circuit has an equivalent voltage source from the standpoint of the two output terminals. The voltages can be simplified to one in series with a resistor.
2
Q
What is Norton’s Theorem?
A
Every circuit has an equivalent current source from the standpoint of the two output terminals. The original circuit and the Norton circuit produce exactly the same voltage and current for any load
3
Q
What is Norton current?
A
The current through the shorted load (output) terminals of the original circuit.
4
Q
What is Norton resistance?
A
The equivalent of Thevenin Resistance Rth
