Source transformation:
n the source transformation of a circuit, a voltage source can be transformed into the current source, and a current source can also be transformed into the voltage source.
According to source transformation technique, a voltage source-series resistance combination is equivalent to a current source-parallel resistance combination if and only if their
- Respective open-circuit voltages are equal
- Respective short-circuit currents are equal
- Resistance remains the same in both cases
1) Voltage source to current source
2) Current source to voltage source:
Calculation:
A voltage source having an open circuit voltage of 100 V and internal resistance of 50 ohms can be represented as 100 V voltage source in series with a resistance of 50 ohms as shown in the below figure.
By source transformation, we can represent this circuit as a current source with resistance in parallel.
