Equivalent Circuits
Two-terminal circuit Circuit that has any complex interconnection of
resistances and sources Has ONLY two points that can be connected to
other circuits We will learn how to represent complex two-
terminal circuits by simple equivalent circuits

Circuit Analysis Algorithm Complete two of the following:
Determine the open-circuit voltage (Vt = voc). Determine the short-circuit current (In = isc). Zero the sources and find the Thévenin resistance Rt
looking back into the terminals. Use Ohm’s Law (Vt=InRt) to compute the remaining
parameter. Draw one of the following:

Principle of Superposition
Suppose we have a circuit with MULTIPLE independent sources
We wish to determine a specific response (current or voltage) in the circuit
We can EASILY determine the response due to a SINGLE independent source (by zeroing out the other independent sources)
The SUPERPOSITION principle states that the total response is the SUM of the responses to each of the independent sources acting INDIVIDUALLY
