Thevenin s and norton s equivalent circuits and superposition theorem thevenin s and norton s theorems thevenin s theorem as far as its appearance from outside is concerned, any two terminal network of resistors and energy s ources can be replaced by a series combination of an ideal voltage source voc and a resistor r, where. It is useful to analyze circuits with many voltage and current sources. The millman s equation is nothing more than a thevenin to norton conversion matched together with the parallel resistance formula to find the total voltage across all the branches of the circuit. Anant agarwal and jeffrey lang, course materials for 6. Pick a good breaking point in the circuit cannot split a dependent source and its control variable.

In a reversible queueing system, it is often possible to replace an uninteresting subset of queues by a single fcfs or ps queue with an appropriately chosen service rate. Just as with thevenins theorem, the qualification of linear is identical to that found in the superposition theorem. Millmans theorem is applicable only to those circuits which can be redrawn accordingly. Superposition states that the voltage across or current through an element in a linear circuit is the algebraic sum of the voltage across or currents through that element due to each independent source acting alone. Millmans theorem acts as a very strong tool in case of simplifying the special type of complex electrical circuit. Thevenins theorem and nortons theorem are two important theorems used in fields such as electrical engineering, electronic engineering, physics, circuit analysis and circuit modeling. We have followed the convention that current leaving a node is positive. Nortons theorem, and the maximum power transfer theorem. To verify the validity of my arguments above, i found a formal proof of thevenins theorem in one of my undergrad textbooks. The chapter concludes with a brief introduction to millmans theorem and the substitution and reciprocity theorems. Thevenins theorem is not by itself an analysis tool, but the basis for a very useful method of simplifying active circuits and complex networks because we can solve complex linear circuits and networks especially electronic networks easily and quickly. If there is not any independent source then both voc0 and isc0 so skip step 2. Easy step by step procedure with example pictorial views this is another useful theorem to analyze electric circuits like thevenins theorem, which reduces linear, active circuits and complex networks into a simple equivalent circuit. A more general statement of thevenins theorem is that any linear active network consisting of independent or dependent voltage and current source and the network elements can be replaced by an equivalent circuit having a voltage source in series with a resistance, that voltage source being the open circuited voltage across the open circuited load terminals and the resistance.

Nortons theorem for linear electrical networks, known in europe as the mayernorton theorem, states that any collection of voltage sources, current sources, and resistors with two terminals is electrically equivalent to an ideal current source, i, in parallel with a single resistor, r. Millmans theorem was named after famous electrical engineering professor jacob millman who proposed the idea of this theorem. This is basically an application of thevenins theorem, in the most observable form. This theorem is nothing but a combination of thevenins theorem and nortons theorem. The resistance can be calculated by replacing the load with a test voltage and then measuring the test current after the independent sources are killed.
