I've been exploring circuit analysis lately and had a thought that I’d love to share and hear your thoughts on.
In conducting AC and DC analysis of circuits, it appears to me that we are effectively utilizing the superposition theorem. Let me explain my thought process:
In the process of performing DC analysis, we replace AC voltage sources with short circuits and disconnect AC current sources by opening them (assuming they are ideal). Conversely, during AC analysis, we disconnect DC current sources and replace DC voltage sources with short circuits.
Isn't this concept similar to the principle of superposition, where we examine one source type at a time (either AC or DC) and assess its individual impact? Or does AC/DC analysis encompass additional complexities beyond mere superposition?
