Document Summary

Ideal / independent sources: values stay the same, regardless of changes around it (circular symbols) Controlled / dependent sources: values can change depending on surrounding values (squarical symbols) Voltage is equal in parallel and added in series. Current is added in parallel and equal in series. Voltage divider law, you need to know it: useful for when you have 2 resistors in series with a voltage source. Current divider law: when you have 2 resistors in parallel with a current source. Think: parallel resistors are connected on the top and the bottom and both have the same voltag. Quick tip: for parallel, equal resistors, total resistance = value/# of equal resistors in parallel. You know it"s a capacitor if the phase is -pi/2: inductor: z = j l. You know it"s an inductor if the phase is pi/2: resistor: z = r. Nodal analysis: in summary: kvl, kcl, and voltage divider. Step 0: simplify the circuit if you like.
