Chapter 19
  • Methods of AC Analysis
2
Dependent Sources
  • Voltages and currents of independent sources
    • Not dependent upon any voltage or current elsewhere in the circuit
  • In some circuits
    • Operation of certain devices replaces device with an equivalent model

3
Dependent Sources
  • Models are dependent upon an internal voltage or current elsewhere in the circuit
4
Dependent Sources
  • Have a magnitude and phase angle determined by voltage or current at some other circuit element multiplied by a constant k
  • Magnitude of k is determined by parameters within particular model


5
Dependent Sources
  • Units of constant correspond to required quantities in the equation
6
Source Conversion
  • A voltage source E in series with an impedance Z
    • Equivalent to a current source I having the same impedance Z in parallel
  • I = E/Z
  • E = IZ
7
Source Conversion
  • Voltages and currents at terminals will be the same
    • Internal voltages and currents will differ
8
Source Conversion
  • A dependent source may be converted by the same method
  • Controlling element external to circuit
  • If controlling element is in the same circuit as the dependent source
    • Procedure cannot be used
9
Mesh Analysis
  • Method exactly the same as for dc
    • Convert all sinusoidal expressions into phasor notation
    • Convert current sources to voltage sources
    • Redraw circuit, simplifying the given impedances
10
Mesh Analysis
  • Assign clockwise loop currents to each interior closed loop
  • Show polarities of all impedances
11
Mesh Analysis
  • Apply KVL to each loop and write  resulting equations
  • Voltages that are voltage rises in the direction of the assumed current are positive
    • Voltages that drop are negative
12
Mesh Analysis
  • Solve the resulting simultaneous linear equations or matrix equations
13
Nodal Analysis
  • Method is exactly the same as for dc
  • Nodal analysis will calculate all nodal voltages with respect to ground
  • Convert all sinusoidal expressions into equivalent phasor notation
14
Nodal Analysis
  • Convert all voltage sources to current sources
  • Redraw the circuit
    • Simplifying given impedances and expressing impedances as admittances
15
Nodal Analysis
  • Assign subscripted voltages to nodes
    • Select an appropriate reference node
  • Assign assumed current directions through all branches
  • Apply KCL to each node
  • Solve resulting equations for node voltages
16
Delta-to-Wye Conversion
  • Impedance in any arm of a Y circuit
    • Determined by taking the product of two adjacent D impedances at this arm
    • Divide by the summation of the D impedances
17
Delta-to-Wye Conversion
18
Wye-to-Delta Conversions
  • Any impedance in a D
    • Determined by summing all possible two-impedance product combinations of the Y
    • Divide by impedance found in opposite branch of the Y
19
Wye-to-Delta Conversions

Bridge Networks
  • Bridge circuits are used to measure the values of unknown components
  • Any bridge circuit is balanced when the current through branch between two arms is zero
21
Bridge Networks
  • The condition of a balanced bridge occurs when
22
Bridge Networks
  • When a balanced bridge occurs in a circuit
    • Equivalent impedance of bridge is found by removing central Z and replacing it by a short or open circuit
  • Resulting Z is then found by solving  series-parallel circuit
23
Bridge Networks
  • For an unbalanced bridge
    • Z can be determined by  D-to-Y conversion or mesh analysis
24
Maxwell Bridge
  • Used to determine the L and R of an inductor having a large series resistance
  • L = R2R3C   R = R2R3/R1

Hay Bridge
  • Used to measure the L and R of an inductor having a small series resistance

  • Used to determine an unknown capacitance
