Summary
1. Circuit is a combination of elements through which current
flows (or is expected to flow) in loops (start node = end node).
2. Circuit elements may be active (supplies power) or passive
(consumes power).
3. Simple circuit elements include independent and dependent
voltage and current sources, as well as resistors.
4. Branches are connected by or meet at nodes.
5. Loops are closed paths. Meshes are loops that do not contain
other loops.
6. Wires are ideal conductors. A wire can be treated as one whole
node.
7. Ohm’s Law: V = I*R
8. Ground is a voltage reference node, i.e. Vground = 0 V
