R, G in series Combine to simplify circuits. R in series adds, and is most often used. G in k adds, so
and k may be used when much of the circuit is in parallel.
Y- or -T Convert resistive networks that are not in series or in k into forms that can often be
combined in series or in k. Also simplifies analysis of bridge circuits.
Voltage/current Common circuit configurations used for many applications, as well as handy analysis
dividers tools. Dividers can also be used as combiners when used backwards.
Kirchhoffs laws Solve for branch currents. Often used to derive other methods.
(KVL/KCL)
Node-voltage Solves for node voltages. Probably the most commonly used method because (1) node
method voltages are easy to measure, and (2) there are usually fewer nodes than branches and
therefore fewer unknowns (smaller matrix) than KVL/KCL.
Mesh-current Solves for mesh currents. Fewer unknowns than KVL/KCL, approximately the same
method number of unknowns as node voltage method. Less commonly used, because mesh
currents seem less intuitive, but useful when combining additional blocks in cascade.
Node-voltage Quick, simplified way of analyzing circuits. Very commonly used for quick analysis in
by-inspection practice. Limited to circuits containing only independent current sources.

method
Superposition Simplifies circuits with multiple sources. Commonly used for both calculation and
measurement.
Source transfor- Simplifies circuits with multiple sources. Commonly used for both calculation/design
mation and measurement/test applications.
Thevenin Very often used to simplify circuits in both calculation and measurement applications.
and Norton Also used to analyze cascaded systems. Thevenin is the more commonly used form, but
equivalents Norton is often handy for analyzing parallel circuits. Source transformation allows easy
conversion between Thevenin and Norton.
Input/output Commonly used to evaluate when cascaded circuits can be analyzed individually or
resistance when full circuit analysis or a buffer is needed.
