  2. General time- and transfer constant analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_time-_and_transfer...

    Setting a capacitor value to zero corresponds to an open circuit, while a zero-valued inductor is a short circuit. So for calculation of the , all other capacitors are open-circuited and all other inductors are short-circuited. This is the essence of the ZVT method, which reduces to OCT when only capacitors are involved.

    Then the resistance seen by the test voltage is found using the circuit in the right panel of Figure 1 and is simply V X / I X = R 1. Form the product C 1 R 1. Add these terms. In effect, it is as though each capacitor charges and discharges through the resistance found in the circuit when the other capacitor is an open circuit.

  4. Mesh analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_analysis

    Figure 1: Essential meshes of the planar circuit labeled 1, 2, and 3. R 1, R 2, R 3, 1/sC, and sL represent the impedance of the resistors, capacitor, and inductor values in the s-domain. V s and I s are the values of the voltage source and current source, respectively. Mesh analysis (or the mesh current method) is a circuit analysis method for ...

  5. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    The signal delay of a wire or other circuit, measured as group delay or phase delay or the effective propagation delay of a digital transition, may be dominated by resistive-capacitive effects, depending on the distance and other parameters, or may alternatively be dominated by inductive, wave, and speed of light effects in other realms.

  6. Small-signal model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-signal_model

    Small-signal modeling is a common analysis technique in electronics engineering used to approximate the behavior of electronic circuits containing nonlinear devices with linear equations. It is applicable to electronic circuits in which the AC signals (i.e., the time-varying currents and voltages in the circuit) are small relative to the DC ...

  7. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    In the short-time limit, if the capacitor starts with a certain voltage V, since the voltage drop on the capacitor is known at this instant, we can replace it with an ideal voltage source of voltage V. Specifically, if V=0 (capacitor is uncharged), the short-time equivalence of a capacitor is a short circuit.

  8. Single-ended primary-inductor converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_primary...

    Since S1 is a short while closed, and the instantaneous voltage V L1 is approximately V IN, the voltage V L2 is approximately −V C1. Therefore, D1 is opened and the capacitor C1 supplies the energy to increase the magnitude of the current in I L2 and thus increase the energy stored in L2. I L is supplied by C2. The easiest way to visualize ...

  9. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

    The points where the characteristic curve and the load line intersect are the possible operating point(s) of the circuit; at these points the current and voltage parameters of both parts of the circuit match. [1] The example at right shows how a load line is used to determine the current and voltage in a simple diode circuit.
