Sign Convention
• Passive sign convention : current should
enter the positive voltage terminal
I

Circuit Element
–
• Consequence for P = I V
– Positive (+) Power: element absorbs power
– Negative (-) Power: element supplies power

KVL Polarity
• A loop is any closed path through a circuit
in which no node is encountered more than
once
• Voltage Polarity Convention
– A voltage encountered + to - is positive
– A voltage encountered - to + is negative

Equivalent Impedance
If we wish to replace the two parallel
impedances with a single impedance whose
voltage-current relationship is the same, the
equivalent impedance has a value of:
Z1 Z 2
Z eq 
Z1  Z 2
Parallel elements share the same 2 end nodes

Phasors
• A phasor is a complex number that
represents the magnitude and phase of a
sinusoidal voltage or current:

X  X M 

Impedance
• AC steady-state analysis using phasors
allows us to express the relationship
between current and voltage using a
formula that looks likes Ohm’s law:
V=IZ
• Z is called impedance (units of ohms, W)
• Impedance is (often) a complex number
• Impedance depends on frequency, 2f
