Solving Electric Circuit Problems using KCL and Matrix Methods - Prof. Don L. Millard, Study notes of Microelectronic Circuits

Instructions for solving electric circuit problems using kirchhoff's current law (kcl) and matrix methods. Students are asked to write kcl equations at each unknown node voltage, relate currents to node voltages using ohm's law, and sum currents out of the node. The document also introduces the concept of using cramer's rule or matrix methods to solve for the node voltages. A part of an ecse-2010 course, activity 4-1.
