Series & Parallel Circuits
Series Circuits
Two or more elements connected such that
same current flows through each element.
Two elements must share a simple node.
Parallel Circuit
Two or more elements connected such that
they are subjected to same voltage.

Voltage / Current Sources
A Voltage source maintains a prescribed voltage
regardless of the load current.
Unequal Voltage Sources can be connected in
series but must never be connected in parallel.
A current source maintains a prescribed current
regardless of the load voltage.
Unequal current Sources can be connected in
parallel but must never be connected in series.

Amplifier Classification
Three families of amplifiers:
1. Common-emitter/common-source (C-E/C-S) circuits
Inverting amplifiers
These amplifiers provide moderate/high voltage gain, input
resistance, and output resistance.
2. Common-base/common-gate (C-B/C-G) circuits
Noninverting amplifiers
These amplifiers provide moderate/high voltage gain, low input
resistance, and high output resistance.
3. Common-collector/common-drain (C-C/C-D) circuits
Follower circuits (emitter-follower/source-follower).
These amplifiers are the single-transistor equivalents of the op amp
voltage follower because they provide voltage gain of
approximately 1, high input and low output resistance.
