Resistors and Ohms Law


Symbol
2 possibilities

Ohm's Law:

Vresistor ( t ) = RI (t )
V is the voltage
R is the Resistance (SI Unit Ohm ())
I is the current

Power Dissipation in an electrical


component

Power (t ) = I (t )V (t )
2

= I (t ) R
2

Apply Ohms
Law

= V (t ) / R
Can be derived from the fundamental definition of Voltage
ie
Voltage = Energy/Charge

Ideal Voltage Sources

Battery

Ideal Voltage Source

An ideal voltage source


provides a fixed voltage
regardless of the
resistance placed
across it
A useful model that
does not exist in reality
A large battery is an
excellent approximation

Kirchoffs Loop Rule


The sum of the changes in potential around
any closed path of a circuit must be zero
Based on the law of
conservation of
energy

From Giancolli

Example: Resistor Combinations Series

Req = R1 + R2 + R3

Kirchhoff s Junction Rule


At any junction point, the sum of all currents
entering the junction must equal the sum of
all current leaving the junction
This is based on the law of conservation of charge
At Junction A
I = I1 + I2
Also at B
B

Note Some currents will


need to be negative

Thevenins Equivalent Circuits


Any terminal networks of voltage
sources and resistors is equivalent to a
single resistor in series with a single
voltage source

Figure from Wikipedia

Calculating Vth and Rth


The value of Vth is value of the voltage when no
current is drawn from the circuit
The value of Rth is determined by:

Vth
Rth =
I short
Where Ishort is the current drawn from the
terminals when the source is short circuited
Rth is also the resistance between the terminals
when all voltage sources are replaced by zero
resistance

Thevenins Equivalent Circuit


Example: Wheatstone Bridge

R2
Vout

R3

R4

Nortons Theorem

Any network of batteries and resistors is equivalent to


a perfect current source in parallel with a resistor
INO is the short circuit current, Ishort (See Thevenins)
and RNO = RTh (See Thevenins)

anymore in the Science part of maths
(Following slides summarize this, not
examinable and unfortunately cannot be
used in exam)

Transient Response of R, L and C

Easier way is to use the S plane version of
complex analysis
Utilize the power of Laplace Transforms
Deriving equation in s space and transforming
them back to the time domain

Using Laplace Transforms

Operational Amplifiers
Electronic Circuits made up
of transistors that
electrically amplify signals
Op Amps are amongst the
most utilized and versatile
of all electronic
components
Cost between a few cents
and a few $100 dollars

Operational Amps Both Voltage


and Power Gain
Transformers can increase
the voltage of oscillating
signals but cannot increase
power Not DC and low
frequency signals
Op Amps are active hence
can amplify both voltage and
power
Crucial for many applications
such as stereo systems
