Thvenin Theorem
Any linear, resistive circuit which contains one
or more voltage or current sources can be
replaced by a single voltage source and a series
resistance
Voltage is called the Thvenin equivalent Voltage
(Vth) and Resistance is called Thvenin
equivalent Resistance (Rth)

Norton Theorem
Any linear, resistive circuit which contains one
or more voltage or current sources can be
replaced by a single current source and a
parallel resistor
Current is called the Norton equivalent Current
(In) and Resistance is called Norton equivalent
Resistance (Rn)

Theorem

Maximum Power Transfer Theorem


Maximum power is transferred to the load in a
circuit when the load resistance (RL) equals the

Capacitors
A capacitor is a circuit component that consists
of two conductive plate separated by an
insulator (or dielectric).

Capacitors store charge. Amount of charge


stored on the capacitor is directly proportional to
the voltage across the capacitor. Constant of
proportionality is the capacitance
Q=CV
