Review of
Superposition and Thevenin Equivalent Circuits
Task
1
Use superposition to find all voltages and currents on the below circuit.
Hand work for
superposition. This was done by shorting each voltage source in turn and
finding Vout, then adding the two Vout's
together.
.
LT spice code and simulation of circuit. As you can see in the simulation, 2.4v
at Vout is consistent with the handwork. Our
superposition worked.
Task 2
Find Vout using the Thevenin equivalent circuit on
the circuit below.
Handwork for finding the
Thevenin equivalent circuit. This also includes finding the time delay by using
the formula T = C *R * .7. *Note, there is a error in the time delay calculation. It should be
1.4uS not mS.
LT spice simulation of
Task 2. Pulse of voltage was set with min 0V max 5V, delay of 100ms,
rising/falling time of 1picoSec on time of 200ms and period of .5 second.
