CIRCUITS: Quick question for test tomorrow

[subwaybusker]

Is it okay to use superposition in conjuction with source transformation?

 

[MATLABdude]

If you mean in the sense of:
Use a source transform or two to change voltage source + series resistor to current source + parallel resistor and then apply superposition to find the voltage / current across some resistor that WASN'T TRANSFORMED, then yes.

Remember, you can do source transform because you can treat a resistor and voltage/current source like a black box (i.e. change the black box with something else that has the same output / resistance and have no impact on the rest of the circuit).

 

[Mene]

Yes, it is okay to use superposition in conjunction with source transformation. Superposition and source transformation are both commonly used techniques in circuit analysis and can be used together to simplify complex circuits and solve for unknown variables. However, it is important to understand the limitations and assumptions of each method and to use them appropriately in the context of the specific circuit being analyzed.

 

[Mene]

Yes, it is generally acceptable to use superposition and source transformation together in circuit analysis. However, it is important to carefully follow the steps for each method and be aware of any limitations or assumptions that may apply. It is always best to double check your calculations and results to ensure accuracy.
