Circuit systems

Kirchhoff Linear System Example

Solve loop-current style equations as a matrix system A i = v.

Back to topic

Formula

A i = v

Result

Worked substitution


          

Once circuit laws have produced the equations, the remaining work is linear algebra.

Read the result

The unknown vector represents currents. The residual tells you whether the computed currents satisfy the original circuit equations.

Where it helps

Use it after writing Kirchhoff loop equations, before interpreting the current directions physically.

Common slip

This is not a circuit-diagram parser. The quality of the result depends on the equations you enter.

Try it

Increase voltage 1 and check whether the first current responds in the direction you expect.
