NODAL AND LOOP ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES
LEARNING GOALS
NODAL ANALYSIS
LOOP ANALYSIS
Develop systematic techniques to determine all the voltages
and currents in a circuit
NODE ANALYSIS
• One of the systematic ways to
determine every voltage and
current in a circuit
The variables used to describe the circuit will be “Node Voltages”
-- The voltages of each node with respect to a pre-selected
reference node

CIRCUITS WITH DEPENDENT SOURCES
PRESENT NO SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL

ARE TREATED AS REGULAR SOURCES
WE MUST ADD ONE EQUATION FOR EACH
