Description

Day 12 of Linear Circuits. We introduce dependent sources. While many engineering students are scared of dependent sources, it turns out that they behave exactly like the independent voltage sources and current sources we have seen before. It just turns out that their supply voltage (or supply current) will vary based on something else in the circuit.

The material covers all of the lecture material from an twelfth lecture in a traditional, sophomore-level linear circuits class.
