Unlike voltage sources which focus on constant voltage, current sources are more concerned with ensuring a constant supply of current (amps). The current flow stays constant regardless of the voltage developed at their terminals (which is determined by other circuit components). Consider a water pump that continues to push a certain amount of water regardless […]

Understanding Voltage Sources with Calculations
A voltage source, which falls under the category of an active element, supplies a defined and constant voltage across its terminals. This voltage doesnt change in response to any other components in the circuit. But practically, or real-world voltage sources deviate from this ideal behavior. The rated voltage across the terminals decreases as the load […]
