Practice Problem: Determine The Thevenin Equivalent of The Circuit in Fig. 10.27 As Seen From The Terminals A-B

This document contains lecture notes on analyzing AC circuits from the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Anbar. It discusses applying node and mesh analysis using Kirchhoff's laws to AC circuits represented by phasors. It also covers Thevenin and Norton equivalents, superposition, source transformations, and applications of capacitance multipliers and AC oscillators. PSpice is introduced as a tool for solving AC circuit problems by handling complex numbers. Practice problems are included on determining Thevenin equivalents and using Norton's theorem.

Summary
1. We apply nodal and mesh analysis to ac circuits by applying KCL and
KVL to the phasor form of the circuits.
2. In solving for the steady-state response of a circuit that has
independent
sources with different frequencies, each independent source must be
considered separately. The most natural approach to analyzing such
circuits is to apply the superposition theorem. A separate phasor circuit
for each frequency must be solved independently, and the corresponding
response should be obtained in the time domain. The overall response is
the sum of the time domain responses of all the individual phasor circuits.
3. The concept of source transformation is also applicable in the
frequency domain.
4. The Thevenin equivalent of an ac circuit consists of a voltage source in
series with the Thevenin impedance
5. The Norton equivalent of an ac circuit consists of a current source in
parallel with the Norton impedance
6. PSpice is a simple and powerful tool for solving ac circuit problems. It
relieves us of the tedious task of working with the complex numbers
involved in steady-state analysis.
7. The capacitance multiplier and the ac oscillator provide two typical
applications for the concepts presented in this chapter. A capacitance
multiplier is an op amp circuit used in producing a multiple of a physical
capacitance. An oscillator is a device that uses a dc input to generate an
ac output.
