Voltage-1 Formula:
Definition: This calculator determines the voltage at port 1 (V₁) using the voltage at port 2 (V₂) and the inverse A' parameter in the A'B'C'D' parameter system.
Purpose: It helps electrical engineers analyze two-port networks using inverse transmission parameters.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The voltage at port 2 is divided by the A' parameter to determine the voltage at port 1.
Details: The A'B'C'D' parameters (inverse transmission parameters) are useful for analyzing cascaded two-port networks where the output port becomes the input port.
Tips: Enter the voltage at port 2 and the A' parameter value (typically provided in datasheets or measured). The A' parameter has a tolerance of ±5%.
Q1: What are A'B'C'D' parameters?
A: They are inverse transmission parameters that relate the input and output voltages and currents of a two-port network.
Q2: When would I use this calculation?
A: When analyzing reverse signal transmission through a network or when working with cascaded networks in reverse.
Q3: What does a negative A' parameter mean?
A: It indicates phase inversion between input and output voltages.
Q4: How do I measure the A' parameter?
A: It's the ratio of output to input voltage with the output port open-circuited (I₂ = 0).
Q5: Why is there a ±5% tolerance?
A: This accounts for typical component variations and measurement uncertainties in practical scenarios.
