Solving Non-Linear Equations for Thevenin and Norton Circuits using Analog Behavioural Modelling with PSPICE Software
Abstract: A new approach useful for circuit designers for implementing circuit parameters described by non-linear equations and Thevenin and Norton network equivalent parameters represented by equations is given. The content is divided into two parts, (a)Solving Non-linear equations using analog behavioral modelling using Pspice software (b) Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuit parameter determination for pure resistance DC circuits using SPICE simulator. The non-linear equations are solved using network elements/models described by …

Thevenin and Norton Resistance Using Time Domain Analyses Using Spice Simulations
Abstract: Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits are of interest to circuit simulation designers and researchers. For the Thevenin resistance and Norton conductance determination of a network with available circuit theorems, the substitution network theorem (applied to OrCAD, SPICE, and Pspice AD simulation project) is shown to be suitable with the SPICE/ Pspice circuit simulation software. Instead of the DC option, the transient analyses option of SPICE is used to determine Thevenin/Norton …

Equivalent Linear Circuit for Thevenin and Norton Representation Using Superposition Theorem
Abstract: Using superposition theorem and knowing the Thevenin representation consisting of resistor, independent DC source of a network an equivalent DC network is obtained using SPICE software with linear circuit elements and independent sources and is verified. Also, similarly from the Norton representation, equivalent circuit is obtained. A procedure with Pspice methods to obtain unknown circuit elements using reciprocity theorem is described. Possible examples for (a) only resistive networks and (b) …
