4.5 Thevenin’s Theorem (1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It states that
a linear two-terminal
|
|
circuit (Fig.
a) can be replaced by an
|
equivalent
circuit (Fig. b) consisting
|
|
of a voltage source VTH
in series with
|
a
resistor RTH,
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
VTH is
the open-circuit voltage at the
|
|
|
terminals.
|
|
|
• |
RTH is
the input or equivalent resistance at
|
|
the terminals
when the independent
|
|
|
sources are
turned off.
