  2. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_time_constant...

    The open-circuit time constant (OCT) method is an approximate analysis technique used in electronic circuit design to determine the corner frequency of complex circuits. It is a special case of zero-value time constant (ZVT) method technique when reactive elements consist of only capacitors.

  3. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    Smith chart with graphical construction for analysis of a lumped circuit. The analysis starts with a Z Smith chart looking into R 1 only with no other components present. As R 1 = 50 Ω {\displaystyle R_{1}=50\ \Omega \,} is the same as the system impedance, this is represented by a point at the centre of the Smith chart.

  4. Thévenin's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thévenin's_theorem

    Thévenin's theorem and its dual, Norton's theorem, are widely used to make circuit analysis simpler and to study a circuit's initial-condition and steady-state response. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Thévenin's theorem can be used to convert any circuit's sources and impedances to a Thévenin equivalent ; use of the theorem may in some cases be more convenient ...

  5. Capacitive coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_coupling

    Capacitive coupling from high-voltage power lines can light a lamp continuously at low intensity. In its simplest implementation, capacitive coupling is achieved by placing a capacitor between two nodes. [1] Where analysis of many points in a circuit is carried out, the capacitance at each point and between points can be described in a matrix form.

  6. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    The signal delay of a wire or other circuit, measured as group delay or phase delay or the effective propagation delay of a digital transition, may be dominated by resistive-capacitive effects, depending on the distance and other parameters, or may alternatively be dominated by inductive, wave, and speed of light effects in other realms.

  7. Miller theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_theorem

    As the main Miller theorem, besides helping circuit analysis process, the dual version is a powerful tool for designing and understanding circuits based on modifying impedance by additional current. Typical applications are some exotic circuits with negative impedance as load cancellers, [ 6 ] capacitance neutralizers, [ 7 ] Howland current ...

  8. Mesh analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_analysis

    Figure 1: Essential meshes of the planar circuit labeled 1, 2, and 3. R 1, R 2, R 3, 1/sC, and sL represent the impedance of the resistors, capacitor, and inductor values in the s-domain. V s and I s are the values of the voltage source and current source, respectively. Mesh analysis (or the mesh current method) is a circuit analysis method for ...

  9. Small-signal model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-signal_model

    Small-signal modeling is a common analysis technique in electronics engineering used to approximate the behavior of electronic circuits containing nonlinear devices with linear equations. It is applicable to electronic circuits in which the AC signals (i.e., the time-varying currents and voltages in the circuit) are small relative to the DC ...
