    Dependent sources are voltage or current sources whose output depends on another parameter in the circuit, such as the voltage across or current through another component. Common dependent sources include operational amplifiers, transistors, and voltage/current regulators. There are four types: voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS), current controlled current source (CCCS), voltage controlled current source (VCCS), and current controlled voltage source (CCVS). Dependent sources only output a voltage or current when another independent source is present in the circuit. They are treated like independent sources for nodal/mesh analysis but remain on during superposition analysis.

    Key component in Operational Amplifiers

    Objective of Lecture
    Describe how dependent voltage and current sources

    function. Explain how they are treated when analyzing a circuit and provide examples.

    Dependent Sources
    The output voltage or current of a dependent source is

    determined by one of the parameters associated with another component in the circuit.
    In this course, the parameter is the voltage across or

    current flowing through of the other component.

    Other parameters may be the components resistance, amount of light shining on the component, the ambient temperature, and mechanical stress applied to the component including changes in atmospheric pressure.

    Practical Dependent Sources


    Operational amplifiers Transistors Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) Voltage and current regulators Other devices include: Photodetectors, LEDs, and lasers Piezoelectric devices Thermocouples, thermovoltaic sources

    Dependent Power Sources


    Voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS) Current controlled voltage source (CCVS)
    Voltage controlled current source (VCCS) Current controlled current source (CCCS)

    Power Generators
    Dependent voltage and current sources generate power

    and supply it to a circuit only when there are other voltage or current sources in the circuit.
    These other sources produce a current to flow through

    or a voltage across the component that controls the magnitude of the voltage or current output from the dependent source.

    Circuit Analysis
    Treat similar to the independent voltage and current

    sources when performing nodel and mesh analysis. Do not treat like an independent source when using superposition.
    Independent voltage and current sources are turned on

    and off as we apply superposition. Dependent sources remain on.

    Example #1: Nodal Analysis

    Voltage controlled current source The value of the current is -2x10-3 times the voltage across R1.

    Example #1 (cont)

    Note that there are no units on the coefficient for the

    dependent source. It is assumed that you know that the units should be A/V for a VCCS.

    Example #1 (cont)
    Node A : IV I1 I 4 Node B : I1 1mA I 2 I 3 Node C : I 3 2 x103VR1 0 Node D : I 4 1mA

    Example #1 (cont)
    VA 4V I1 VA VB R1 I 2 VB R2 I 3 VB VC R3 VR1 VA VB

    I 4 VA VD R4

    Example #1 (cont)

    Node A : IV 4V VB R1 4V VD R4

    Node B : 4V VB R1 1mA VB R2 VB VC R3 Node C : VB VC R3 2 x103 4V VB 0 Node D : I 4 1mA

    Example #1 (cont)
    Nodes Voltages (V) A 4V B 6V C D 22V 1V IV I1 I2 I3 I4 Currents(mA) -1 mA -2mA 3mA -4mA 1mA

    Example #2: Superposition


    V2 is a current controlled voltage source (CCVS). The value of the voltage of the CCVS is 3000 times the current i2, which is the current flowing out of V1.

    Example #2 (cont)
    The two circuits that will be analyzed are 1. When V1 is on and I1 is turned off. 2. When I1 is on and V1 is turned off.

    In both circuits, V2 is left on.

    Example #2 (cont)
    When I1 is turned off, one terminal of R4 is not connected to the rest of the circuit an it can be eliminated.

    Example #2 (cont)

    You can select any analysis to solve for i2 .

    Example #2 (cont)
    V1 VR1 VR 2 0 VR 2 VR 3 V2 0 V1 4V VR1 i2 R1 VR 2 i2 i3 R2 VR 3 i3 R3 V2 3000i2

    Example #2 (cont)

    Dependent Source V2

    0.9V

    Example #2 (cont)

    Currents i2 (1.2+0.3)mA=1.5mA

    Dependent Source V2 (3.6+0.9)V=4.5V

    Summary
    Dependent sources are voltage or current sources whose output is a function of another parameter in the circuit.
    Voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS) Current controlled current source (CCCS)

    Voltage controlled current source (VCCS)


    Current controlled voltage source (CCVS)

    Dependent sources only produce a voltage or current

    when an independent voltage or current source is in the circuit. Dependent sources are treated like independent sources when using nodal or mesh analysis, but not with superposition.
