NODAL ANALYSIS

Nodal Analysis with Voltage source

Two Cases to consider:

• Case 1: A voltage source is connected between a non-reference node and a reference node. The voltage of a non-reference is equal to the voltage source.

• Case 2: A voltage source is connected between two non-reference node will form the Super Node. Super node is formed by enclosing voltage source connected between two non-reference nodes and any elements connected in a parallel with it.

Properties of a Super Node:

1. The voltage source inside the super node provides a constant equation needed to solve for the node voltages.
2. It has no voltage of it's own.
3. It requires the application of both KCL and KVL.
