NETWORK
• An electrical network is an
switches

Passive Network/Element:-
Passive network is one, which contains no source of emf in
it i.e., R, L, C.
An element that is capable of receiving power is called
passive element Ex: Resistor, Inductor, Capacitor.
Active Network/Element:-
Active network is one that contains one or more than one
source of emf, then the network is called an active
network.
An element that is capable of supplying power is called
an active element.
EXAMPLES : Voltage sources, Current sources
Generators (such as alternators and DC generators)
All different types of transistors (such as bipolar junction
transistors, MOSFETS, FETs, and JFET)
Diodes (such as Zener diodes, photodiodes, Schottky
diodes, and LEDs)

• Lumped Elements:- When it is possible to separate the elements
of a network physically like resistors, inductors, capacitors, etc. the
elements are called as lumped elements. Kirchhoff’s law is only
applicable to the circuit with lumped elements.

Linear circuit:- A linear circuit is an electric circuit in which circuit
parameters (Resistance, inductance, capacitance, waveform, frequency
etc) are constant. In other words, a circuit whose parameters are not
changed with respect to Current and Voltage is called Linear Circuit.
Bilateral Circuit:- A circuit Chose characteristics are the same in
either direction of the current flow is called a bilateral circuit. The
electrical transmission line is an example of the bilateral circuit as it
performs its functions equally Bell in both directions. Whereas, a diode
is a unilateral element, unlike a bilateral element in which direction of
flow of current affects circuit behavior. In forward bias, it has the
least resistance and allows maximum current through it. In reverse bias,
it offers high resistance to the flow of current.

Mesh: A mesh is a closed path in a
circuit with no other paths inside it. In
other words, a loop with no other loops
inside it.
