2 inear Elements and Circuits A linear circuit element has a linear voltage-current relationship: If i(t) produces v(t), then Ki(t) produces Kv(t) If i 1 (t) produces v 1 (t) and i 2 (t) produces v 2 (t), then i 1 (t) + i 2 (t) produces v 1 (t) + v 2 (t), Resistors and sources are linear elements Dependent sources need linear control equations to be linear elements A linear circuit is one with only linear elements The Superposition Concept For the circuit shown below, the question is: How much of v 1 is due to source i a, and how much is due to source i b? We will use the superposition principle to answer this question. Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 2

3 The Superposition Theorem In a linear network, the voltage across or the current through any element may be calculated by adding algebraically all the individual voltages or currents caused by the separate independent sources acting alone, i.e. with All other independent voltage sources replaced by short circuits (i.e. set to a zero value) and All other independent current sources replaced by open circuits (also set to a zero value). Applying Superposition eave one source ON and turn all other sources OFF: Voltage sources: set v=0 These become short circuits. Current sources: set i=0 These become open circuits. Then, find the response due to that one source Add the responses from the other sources to find the total response Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 3

4 Superposition Example (Part 1 of 4) Use superposition to solve for the current i x Superposition Example (Part 2 of 4) First, turn the current source off: i x = = 0.2 Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 4

5 Superposition Example (Part 3 of 4) Then, turn the voltage source off: i x = 6 (2) = Superposition Example (Part 4 of 4) Finally, combine the results: i x = i x + i x = =1.0 Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 5

6 Example: Power Ratings Determine the maximum positive current to which the source I x can be set before any resistor exceeds its power rating. Answer: I x < ma Superposition with a Dependent Source When applying superposition to circuits with dependent sources, these dependent sources are never turned off. Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 6

7 Superposition with a Dependent Source Current source off Voltage source off i x = i x +i x =2 + ( 0.6) = 1.4 A Superposition Example Find voltage Vx. First, solve by nodal analysis. (42-Vx)/6 = (Vx-(-10))/4 + Vx/3 Vx = 54/9 = 6 volts Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 7

8 Example - Continued Vx (42 V ) = 9.333V (3 4) = 42 = 6 + (3 4) (12 / 7) (12 / 7) Example - Continued Vx (10 V ) = 3.333V (6 3) 2 = 10 = 10 (6 3) Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 8

9 Example - Continued Vx = Vx (42V ) + Vx (10V ) = = 6V Practical Voltage Sources Ideal voltage sources: a first approximation model for a battery. Why do real batteries have a current limit and experience voltage drop as current increases? Two car battery models: Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 9

10 Practical Source: Effect of Connecting a oad For the car battery example: V = I This line represents all possible R Practical Voltage Source v = v s R i s i OR vs = R s v R s v i oc sc = v = s v R s s Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 10

11 Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 11 Practical Current Source s sc s p oc i i i R v = = p s R v i i = Equivalent Practical Sources p s R v i i = s s s R v R v i = These two practical sources are equivalent if R S = R P S S S R v i =

12 Source Transformation and Equivalent Sources The sources are equivalent if R s =R p and v s =i s R s Source Transformation The circuits (a) and (b) are equivalent at the terminals. If given circuit (a), but circuit (b) is more convenient, switch them. This process is called source transformation. Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 12

13 Example: Source Transformation We can find the current I in the circuit below using a source transformation, as shown. I = (45-3)/( ) = ma I = ma Example Use source transformations to find Ix Engr228 - Chapter 5, Hayt 8E 13
