Maximum Power Transfer
Maximize the power delivered to a resistive load
ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 2
Consider the General Case
• A resistive network contains independent and dependent sources.
• A load is connected to a pair of terminals labeled a – b.
• What value of load resistance permits maximum power delivery to the load?
