  2. Nodal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodal_analysis

    The choice does not affect the element voltages (but it does affect the nodal voltages) and is just a matter of convention. Choosing the node with the most connections can simplify the analysis. For a circuit of N nodes the number of nodal equations is N−1. Assign a variable for each node whose voltage is unknown.

  3. Network analysis (electrical circuits) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analysis...

    [2]: 2-8 - 2-9 For all nodes, except a chosen reference node, the node voltage is defined as the voltage drop from the node to the reference node. Therefore, there are N-1 node voltages for a circuit with N nodes. [2]: 2-10 In principle, nodal analysis uses Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) at N-1 nodes to get N-1 independent equations. Since ...

  4. Modified nodal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_nodal_analysis

    In electrical engineering, modified nodal analysis [1] or MNA is an extension of nodal analysis which not only determines the circuit's node voltages (as in classical nodal analysis), but also some branch currents. Modified nodal analysis was developed as a formalism to mitigate the difficulty of representing voltage-defined components in nodal ...

  5. Node (circuits) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(circuits)

    Each color in the circuit represents one node. In electrical engineering, a node is any region on a circuit between two circuit elements. In circuit diagrams, connections are ideal wires with zero resistance, so a node consists of the entire section of wire between elements, not just a single point. [1]

  6. Port (circuit theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_(circuit_theory)

    Simple resistive network with three possible port arrangements: (a) Pole pairs (1, 2) and (3, 4) are ports; (b) pole pairs (1, 4) and (2, 3) are ports; (c) no pair of poles are ports. Any node of a circuit that is available for connection to an external circuit is called a pole (or terminal if it is a physical object).

  7. Failure detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_detector

    Furthermore, Chandra and Toueg point out an important fact that the failure detector does not prevent any crashes in the system, even if the crashed program has been suspected previously. The construction of a failure detector is an essential, but a very difficult problem that occurred in the development of the fault-tolerant component in a ...

  8. Circuit design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_design

    This iterative process involves continuous refinement and correction of errors. The task of circuit design is demanding and requires meticulous attention to detail to avoid errors. Circuit designers are required to conduct multiple tests to ensure the efficiency and safety of their designs before they are deemed suitable for consumer use. [15]
