Study Notes
Practical Voltage and Current Sources
- A practical voltage source can be replaced by a current source in parallel with an internal resistance RS, and vice versa.
- The internal resistance RS is the key to transforming between voltage and current sources.
Star-Delta Transformation
- Star connection and delta connection are two methods of connecting three basic elements that cannot be further simplified into series or parallel.
- These two ways of representation can have equivalent circuits in either form.
Generation of Sinusoidal AC Voltage
- A rotating coil in a uniform magnetic field induces an emf according to Faraday's Law.
- The flux linking the coil changes as it rotates, inducing an emf that varies sinusoidally.
Transformer
- A transformer is a device that transfers electric energy from one AC circuit to one or more circuits, either increasing or reducing the voltage.
- It is used to reduce voltage for low-voltage devices or raise voltage for long-distance transmission.
- The transformer works on Faraday's law of mutual induction, requiring an alternating flux for mutual induction between the primary and secondary windings.
Ideal and Practical Transformers
- An ideal transformer has no losses (core losses, copper losses, etc.), 100% efficiency, and zero leakage reactance.
- In an ideal transformer, the leakage flux is considered nil.
- Practical transformers have losses and non-ideal characteristics.
Dependent Sources
- Dependent or controlled sources have a value that depends on the voltage or current at another location in the circuit.
- Types of dependent sources:
- Voltage-controlled voltage source (VCVS): output is controlled by another voltage in the circuit (e.g., idealized amplifier).
- Current-controlled voltage source (CCVS): output is controlled by a current in the circuit.
- Voltage-controlled current source (VCCS): output is controlled by a voltage in the circuit.
- Current-controlled current source (CCCS): output is controlled by a current in the circuit.
