4. Dr. Mohamed Shalaby 4
Superposition
Principle
In any linear circuit containing multiple
independent sources,
the current or voltage at any point in the
network may be calculated as the algebraic
sum of the individual contributions of each
source acting alone.
5. 5
Superposition
Procedure
Find the contribution due to only one
independent source by deactivating all
other independent sources.
Repeat for other sources.
Sum individual contributions to obtain
desired voltage or current.
