THEVENIN'S THEOREM

• Thevenin's theorem states that any linear two terminal network containing
resistances, voltage and current sources can be replaced by a single voltage
source Vth in series with a single resistance Rth.
• The thevenin equivalent voltage Vth is the open circuit voltage at the terminals
and the thevenin's resistance Rth is the resistance between the terminals when
all voltage sources in the network are short-circuited and all current sources are
open circuited.
THEORY
• In electrical circuit theory, Thevenin’s theorem for linear electrical networks
states that any combination of voltage sources, current sources and resistors
with two terminals is electrically equivalent to a single voltage source V and a
single series resistor R. For single frequency AC systems, the theorem can also
be applied to general impedances, not just resistors. Any complex network can
be reduced to a Thevenin's equivalent circuit consist of a single voltage source
and series resistance connected to a load.

•
To calculate the equivalent circuit, one needs a resistance
and some voltage - two unknowns. Thus two equations are
needed. These two equations are usually obtained by using
the following steps, but any conditions one places on the
terminals of the circuit should also work:
• Calculate the output voltage, VAB, when in
open circuit condition (no load resistor -
meaning infinite resistance). This is VTh.
• Calculate the output current, IAB, when the
output terminals are short circuited (load
resistance is 0). RTh equals VTh divided by IAB.
PROCEDURE
• First make the circuit and
then notice the current and
voltage through the load
resistance.
Calculate thevenin's equivalent
resistance (Rth) and thevenin's
equivalent voltage (Vth).
Now make the thevenin's
equivalent circuit. Measure the
current through the load
resistance.
Compare the values of current
passing through the load resistance
obtained from the original circuit
with the corresponding values from
the thevenin's equivalent circuit.
