Enter the Norton Current (In) = amperes
Enter the Norton Resistance (Rn) = ohms

The Thevenin Voltage (Vth) is = volts
The Thevenin Resistance (Rth) is = ohms

Thevenin to Norton Converter

The calculation below helps transform a practical voltage source into a practical current source.
Enter the Thevenin Voltage (Vth) = volts
Enter the Thevenin Resistance (Rth) = ohms

The Norton Current (In) is = amperes
The Norton Resistance (Rn) is = ohms

Question: What technique is applied to convert a Thevenin equivalent circuit into a Norton equivalent circuit or vice versa?


Answer:

Source transformation is applied. A voltage source in series with an internal resistance is equivalent to a current source in parallel with the same internal resistance.

V thevenin = (I norton) x (R internal)
I norton = (V thevenin) / (R internal)
R internal = (V thevenin) / (I norton)
