Open Circuit Voltage Test The open circuit voltage test, also known as the no-load test, is a standard procedure in electrical engineering for assessing a power source's condition when not under load.

Here, the upper sign indicates the non-inverting connection; the lower is the inverting. The calculated open-circuit input impedance using this circuit is z 1 + N 12 z 12, as one would expect.

In this Design Idea, we explore several ways to use SPICE [1-3] circuit analysis software to determine the Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuit parameters of linear active networks. The Thevenin ...
