Text ## Lecture (L3-5) Thevenin and Norton Equivalent Circuits

Many  circuits are very complex and difficult to analyze. Or, we may have a circuit in a box where we can measure the outputs, but don't know what is inside the box.  Thevenin/Norton equivalent circuits let us combine all of the complex or hidden parts of the circuit into a single 'black box' equivalent circuit, thus simplifying our analysis considerably.

Questions of the Day (Learning Objectives)

  1. What are Thevenin and Norton Equivalent Circuits, and how to you apply them in circuit analysis?
  2. How do you find a Thevenin equivalent?
