Question
In the circuit shown, the Norton equivalent resistance (in ) across terminals a-b is
Correct answer
1.3 to 1.35
Solution
The source is dependent, so apply a test voltage across a-b (with no independent sources) and find the current drawn.Terminal is the node after the top ; the shunt and the both sit between and . The controlling current flows down through the :Currents leaving node :
- through the shunt :
- through the :
- back through the top to the source:
