AI-generated Abstract

The paper explores the integration of MATLAB and PSpice in the education of electric circuit theory for Electrical Engineering students. It emphasizes the Laplace transform method for circuit analysis and presents practical MATLAB programs for solving circuit equations. Additionally, the book guides readers through using PSpice for circuit simulations, promoting a balanced understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of circuit design.

Key takeaways

  • (Example 2.7) A Circuit Having a Dependent Voltage Source with No Series Element
  • For the circuit of Figure 2.46, the output voltage is only one unknown so a single node equation is needed that can be written by applying KCL to the node N, i.e. the negative input terminal: Consider the OP Amp circuit of Figure 2.47 in which the average and difference of two input voltages v iP and v iN are defined as the common and differential modes, respectively, as follows: Since the OP Amp has a negative feedback path via R N2 , but no positive feedback path, the virtual short principle says that the negative input voltage is (almost) equal to the positive input voltage so that the current through R N1 is found to be This output voltage can be written in terms of v cm and v dm as where Common mode gain :
  • (c) Verify that the transformed output voltage of the circuit in Figure P3.20(b) is
  • Note that the transfer function of this circuit with the source current as the input and the node voltage as the output is
  • Consider the circuit of Figure P6.11(a), which is driven by an AC voltage source.
