CIRCUIT ANALYSIS USING MATLAB

SEE 1023 Teori Litar

2007/2008 - II
 Expected Outcome:

At the end of this presentation and hands-on examples,

students should be able to perform equation verifications
using MATLAB
 MATLAB

MATLAB – Matrix Laboratory

MATLAB was developed by a lecturer in 1970s – to teach

linear algebra

Later, marketed by Mathworks - 1984

Where to get the student version of MATLAB?

PCs in Power Electronics Lab (P07 – level 2)

PCs in Simulation Lab (P08 – level 3)

 Why MATLAB ?

• Its part of the requirements for program accreditation

• Accepted worldwide as tools to solve engineering problems

• You will be using it again (and again) in future courses

• Used to verify your answers for your homework/assignment in

SEE 1023
 When to use MATLAB in SEE 1023 ?

• Used to solve simultaneous equations

• To verify that equations written from Nodal/Mesh analysis are correct

• Can be used hand-in-hand with PSpice

Solving CORRECT equations produce similar results with PSpice

Circuit problem

mesh or nodal analysis

Simulate using PSpice

Solve simultaneous eqn using MATLAB

A V = Y

Therefore,

V = A-1 Y
16v 2  12v 3  28

How do we solve this in MATLAB ?

 3v 2  4v 3  21
 Examples – DC analysis
All variables in MATLAB are matrices

How do we assign values to the variables in MATLAB?

V is a 21 matrix, therefore,

v2 = V(1,1) and v3 = V(2,1)

v2 = 13 V, v3 = 15 V
