Thevenins Theorem
It is not convenient to analyze the entire circuit all over again whenever the
variable element is changed.
To avoid this problem, Thevenins theorem provide a technique by which
the fixed part of the circuit is replaced by an equivalent circuit.

2: Circuit with both dependent and
independent sources.
To find , remove the load and find the voltage
across the open circuit terminals
To find :
1. Remove the load
2. Turn off the independent sources
3. Apply an independent voltage source to the open
circuit and measure the current through through the
source.
4. Then

Nortons Theorem
It states that a linear two-terminal
circuit can be replaced by an equivalent
circuit of a current source IN in parallel
with a resistor RN, where

Alternatively, we may
determine I from V /R . We
obtain V as the open-circuit
voltage across terminals a
and b as shown. Using mesh
