A. Thevenin's theory.

B. In this experiment you will become familiar with one of the most important theorems in circuit analysis.

C. Thevenin's Theorem can be used for two purposes:

 To calculate the current through (or voltage across) a component in any circuit,
Or
 To develop a constant voltage equivalent circuit which may be used to simplify the analysis
of a complex circuit.

Any linear one-port network can be "replaced with" a single voltage source in series with a single
resistor (see Figure 1 below). The voltage source is called the Thevenin equivalent voltage, and the
resistor is called the Thevenin equivalent resistance. What this means is that a single voltage
source and series resistor will behave identically to the actual part of the circuit it is replacing.

In this experiment, you will use Thevenin's theorem to solve a complex DC circuit

Fig. 1 A network replaced with its Thevenin equivalent circuit

11
The steps used for Thevenin's Theorem are listed below:
 Step 1
Remove the resistor (R) through which you wish to calculate the current or across which you want to know
the voltage. Label these terminals (where the resistor was removed) "a" and "b". Calculate the voltage
across these open terminals. This is called the open circuit voltage or the Thevenin equivalent voltage, VTH.

 Step 2
From the open terminals, ("a" and "b") calculate the resistance "looking back" from the open terminals
with all voltage sources removed and replaced by their internalresistances (if 𝑹𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 = 𝟎, replace the
voltage source with a short). This resistance is RTH

Now we have the components we need to create the Thevenin equivalent circuit as shown
below using the Thevenin equivalent voltage and resistance values calculated above connected in
series with the load resistor as shown below.

 Step 3
The current (through R) you wish to calculate will be:
𝑽𝑻𝑯 (𝑹)
𝑰𝑹 = … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … (𝟏)
𝑹𝑻𝑯 + 𝑹

and the voltage across R will be

𝑽𝑻𝑯 (𝑹)
𝑽𝑹 = 𝑰(𝑹) = … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … (𝟐)
𝑹𝑻𝑯 + 𝑹

12
where: VTH is from Thevenin equivalent voltage obtained in Step 1, RTH is the Thevenin equivalent voltage
obtained in Step 2, and R is the value of the resistor removed in Step 1.

D. Procedure

a) Connect the circuit in Fig. 2. We will use Thevenin's theorem to find the current
through R3.
b) Measure the current through R3 and the voltage across R3. Record them:

IR3 = __________________(meas) VR3 = ___________________(meas)

F
Fig. 2
c) You will now use Thevenin's Theorem to calculate the current through R3, by following the steps
outlined in the introduction. SHOW ALL WORK in the space provided. Record the results for each step
in the space provided.
Referring to Figure 3, which is Figure 2 with R3 removed, calculate VTH in fig.3 showing all work.

d) Verify the actual Thevenin equivalent voltage be measurement: Construct the circuit in fig. 3, and
measure 𝑽𝑻𝑯.

e) Construct the circuit in Figure 4, which is the circuit in Figure 2 with R3 removed and the 12 V source
replaced by a short circuit (a dead voltage source). Calculate RTH in Fig. 4, showing all work.

Another widely used network theorem, called NORTON'S THEOREM, makes use of a
theoretical, but very useful, device called a CONSTANT- CURRENT GENERATOR. As the name
says, a ''constant-current generator'' is a theoretical generator that delivers the same constant
current to all finite load resistances it is connected to.
Norton's theorem is expressed in terms of the short-circuit current delivered by the network, and in
terms of conductance's instead of resistances. This makes Norton's theorem especially useful in the
study of parallel circuits. The statement of Norton's theorem is as follows.
The current in any load conductance GL, when connected to two terminals of a network, is
thesame as if GL connected to a constant-current generator whose constant current is equal to
the current that flows between the two terminals when they short-circuited together. This constant-
current generator then being put in parallel with a conductance equal to the conductance seen looking
back into the open-circuited terminals of the network. (In this last step, all generators removed
and replaced with conductances equal to their internal conductance's.)
Norton's theorem is summarized graphically in Fig.(1), where I sc is the short- circuit current that
flows from the network when terminals a, b are ''shorted'' together. G gis the conductance seen
looking back into the network with the terminals open-circuited, that is, with the switch open.

Fig. (1)

D. Practical procedure for finding Norton's equivalent circuit:

o Next find the resistance R i of the network as looked into from the given terminals.

C. Theory:

*What is the Oscilloscope?


Oscilloscope is a graphic meter. This measures and records quantities that vary rapidly, at rates of hundreds,
thousands, or millions of times per second. It creates a ''graph'' by throwing a beam of electrons at a
phosphor screen. A cathode- ray tube(CRT), Similar to the kind in a television set, is employed.
Oscilloscopes are useful for looking at the shapes of signal waveforms. An Oscilloscope can also be
used to approximately measure the frequency of a waveform.
The function of an oscilloscope is extremely simple: it draws a V/t graph, a graph of voltage against time,
voltage on the vertical or Y- axis, and time on the horizontal or X- axis.
As you can see in fig. 1, the screen of this oscilloscope has 8 squares or divisions on the vertical axis,
and 10 squares or divisions on the horizontal axis. Usually, these squares are 1 cm in each direction.

TIME Horizontal axis

Fig.(1) The Oscilloscope screen Y-axis

Oscilloscope controls
Many of the controls of the oscilloscope allow you to change the vertical or horizontal scales or position
of the V/t graph, so that you can display a clear picture of the signal, the most important controls are:

 The channel 1 and 2 inputs- these may be marked "X" AND "Y".

21
 The TIME/DIV control determines horizontal scale of the graph which appears on the
oscilloscope screen. For example if you adjust it to 0.5 ms this means that everyone horizontal
square is equal to ms.
 The VOLTS/DIV controls determine the vertical scale of the graph drawn on the oscilloscope
screen. There are two controls from this type each means that everyone vertical square is equal to
1V.
 The X-POS moves the graph from side to side on the screen(horizontally).
 The Y-POS allows you move the graph up and down the screen (vertically). There are two controls
from this type each one for one channel(ch1,ch2).
 The INTENSITY control: it's for graph brightness.
 The FOCUS control: it's for graph sharpness.
 CHI- CHII- Add-Dual: as following:
CH1: to display the graph of CH1 only.
CH2: to display the graph of CHII only.
Add: CHI and CHII signals added together to produce a single trace.Show fig.(2).

Fig. (2) the Oscilloscope

Oscilloscope modes

In order to obtain a steady state display for a repetitive signal, the time-base may be synchronized to one
of the input signals. This is achieved using the trigger controls.

A second mode of operation is known as X-Y display in which the voltage applied to one input is
displayed as a function of the voltage applied to the second input. See fig.(3).

A. Series RLC circuit sinusoidal response.
B. To measure the resonant frequency and bandwidth for a series RLC circuit.
C. Theory:

Since inductive and capacitive reactance are a function of frequency, the sinusoidal response of
RLC circuit will vary with the applied frequency. Inductive reactance is directly proportional to
the frequency, and the capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the frequency.
There is a frequency (𝒇𝒐 ) where the reactance cancel out (XL- XC = 0) and the circuit becomes
resistive [Z = R + J (XL- XC )].
This phenomenon is called Resonance.
Below the resonant frequency the impedance is capacitive. Above the resonant frequency the
impedance is inductive.
The series resonant circuit has two important parameters, resonant frequency (𝒇𝒐 ) and bandwidth
(BW).
The bandwidth is the difference between the two frequencies where the current in the circuit is
0.707 of its maximum value.
D. Procedure:
1. Connect the circuit as shown in fig.1, let R = 620Ω, L = 100mH, and
C = 0.1 µF.
2. Apply a sinusoidal input of 5V p- p to the circuit.
3. Display both input and output on the screen of the Oscilloscope using two different channels
with the same horizontal scale.
4. Keep the value of the function generator(input voltage) fixed at 5V p- p .
5. Vary the frequency from 600Hz to 2500Hz in increment of 100Hz.
