Kirchhoff’s Laws Voltage is single-valued, so the sum of voltages around any loop is zero:∑ E = 0 Charge is conserved (no accumulation), so at any junction currents sum to zero:∑ ⊥ I = 0 Kirchoff’s Laws form a system of linear ODEs/equations which can be solved. Characteristic Equations A powerful method to solve linear homogeneous differential equations is the method of characteristic equations. Consider the ODE: a d2q(t) dt2 + b dq(t) dt + c q(t) = 0 The general solution to this is: q(t) = q+e ω+t + q−e ω−t where: ω± = −b± √ b2 − 4ac 2a and q± are fixed by boundary values.
