Dependent Current Source

Dependent Current Source

A dependent current source establishes a current, which is independent of the voltage across it, that is determined by the

Dependent Voltage Source

Dependent Voltage Source

Dependent Sources An ideal source, either voltage or current, whose value depends upon some parameter (usually a voltage or current)

Current Divider Rule

Current Divider Rule

It can be quite useful to determine how a current entering two parallel resistors “divides” between them. Consider the circuit shown
