    Engineering AC circuit analysis -- mesh and nodal

    Thanks Electrician Yes, I totally see that sign change, that was an error of mine. Funny thing is that I had it right the first time but got the wrong answer so in trying to get the right answer that was a change I made. I had used an online calculator to try and get the answer, I must have...

    Engineering AC circuit analysis -- mesh and nodal

    Carrying on from this as I am getting nowhere.. ((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3) = 0 V30 = V20 - V3 ((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - ((V20-V3)/Z5) + ((V2+(V20-V3))/Z3) = 0 When I put the values into get V20 and divide that by Z4 I get 8.78 - j16.59 Not the answer I got for the...

    Darn: Was of course V20-V30 = 14.14+j14.14

    Engineering AC circuit analysis -- mesh and nodal

    Hi Electrician Yes indeed, that was me being lazy and not putting all parentheses in, silly of me. What I have is this: ((V1-V20) / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3) = 0 V20-V30 = 14.14+j14-14

    Engineering AC circuit analysis -- mesh and nodal

    Hi Rob1985 I too am working on this and just can't seem to get it right. My equation is similar to yours. I have used different terminology but if I use your terminology I have: (V1-V20 / Z1) - (V20/Z4) - (V30/Z5) + ((V2+V30)/Z3) Obviously wrong as does not get the answer from mesh analysis...

    Solving Transimpedance Circuit: Find k in Terms of R1, R2, and Rf

    Thanks for your input, I really appreciate your thoughts. Once I am quite certain what I now have is coorect I shall try the method mentioned as well. Good thing you asked me to do the math again, I don't know how I got it wrong so many times.

    Solving Transimpedance Circuit: Find k in Terms of R1, R2, and Rf

    Oh man, I think I got it. Just did the same mistake over and over again somehow. Getting a beer, leaving it alone for a while, and coming back seem to have done it. Not got SPICE now but pretty certain I have it now. Now have I = 9.99exp-10 That's the 10 I was looking for. :-)

    Solving Transimpedance Circuit: Find k in Terms of R1, R2, and Rf

    Calculated current was 9.998nA. (So 10nA) This though should be 1nA . with 1nA the simulation works. Somewhere is a factor 10 mistake I presume but I son,t see it.
