Additional Analysis Techniques in Time-Dependent Circuits
As we discussed before, in addition to the nodal and mesh analysis methods reviewd in the previous sections, most of the other methods that we learned to study DC and AC circuits can also be used to analyze time-dependent circuits:
- Ohm's law
- current division
- voltage division
- impedance simplification
- superposition
- source transformation
- Norton and Thévenin equivalent circuits
Click the links the Examples section to see how we apply these methods to solve different problems in linear circuits.
