This document discusses several circuit analysis theorems and techniques. It introduces Kirchhoff's laws, which relate the voltage and current in circuits. It also covers Thevenin's theorem for reducing circuits to a single voltage source and resistance, Norton's theorem for reducing circuits to a current source and resistance, and the superposition theorem for analyzing circuits with multiple power sources.

Norton’s, and Superposition Theorems Objectives • After studying this unit, you should be able to: – State Kirchhoff’s voltage and current laws – Solve problems using Kirchhoff’s laws – Discuss Thevenin’s theorem – Find the Thevenin equivalent voltage and resistance values for a circuit network Objectives (cont’d.) – Discuss Norton’s theorem – Find the Norton equivalent current and resistance values for a circuit network – Solve circuits using the superposition theorem Preview • Ohm’s law – In some circuits, cannot be used or would be very difficult to use to find unknown value • Kirchhoff’s laws – Can be used to solve any type of circuit • Often used when circuits do not have clearly defined series or parallel connections • Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems – Used to simplify circuit networks Kirchhoff’s Laws • Voltage and current relationships: – Algebraic sum of voltage sources and voltage drops in a closed circuit must equal zero – Algebraic sum of currents entering and leaving a point must equal zero Kirchhoff’s Current Law • Algebraic sum of current entering and leaving a point must equal zero
FIGURE 9–1 The algebraic sum of the currents
entering and leaving a point must equal zero. Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law • Algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed loop must equal zero

Thevenin’s Theorem • Used to simplify a circuit network into an equivalent circuit – Single voltage source and series resistor
FIGURE 9–7 Thevenin’s theorem reduces a circuit network
to a single power source and a single series resistor. FIGURE 9–8 Equivalent Thevenin resistance. Norton’s Theorem • Used to reduce a circuit network into a simple current source and a single parallel resistance • Current sources – Power sources can be represented as a voltage source or current source FIGURE 9–13 The Thevenin equivalent circuit contains a voltage source and series resistance. The Norton equivalent circuit contains a current source and parallel resistance. Determining the Norton Equivalent Circuit

Superposition Theorem • Any branch of a circuit supplied by a multipower source – Can be determined by finding current produced in that branch by each of the individual power sources acting alone • All other power sources must be replaced by a resistance equivalent to their internal resistances • Total current flow through the branch is the algebraic sum of individual currents produced by each of the power sources FIGURE 9–20 A circuit with two power sources. Summary • Kirchhoff's Laws – Used to solve any type of circuit • Algebraic sum of the voltage drops and voltage sources around any closed path must equal zero • Algebraic sum of the currents entering and leaving any point must equal zero – Used to solve unknown values for circuits that contain more than one power source – Is generally necessary to solve simultaneous equations Summary (cont’d.) • Thevenin’s theorem – Involves reducing a circuit network to a simple voltage source and series resistance • Equivalent voltage is the open circuit voltage across two points – To determine Thevenin equivalent resistance, replace voltage source with a short circuit Summary (cont’d.) • Norton’s theorem – Involves reducing a circuit network to a current source and parallel resistance • Current is determined by shorting output terminals • Resistance is determined by replacing the current source with a short circuit Summary (cont’d.) • Superposition theorem – Used to find current flow through any branch of a circuit containing more than one power source
