Homework Statement
Here's the problem:
Find the equivalent conductance Geq and then the equivalent resistance Req "seen" by the current source Is in the circuit in terms of the literals R1, R2, and gm.
Figure:
Homework Equations
Ohm's Law: V = IR
KVL: V1 + V2 + ... Vn = 0 for closed loops
KCL: I1 + I2 + ... In = 0 going in an out of a node
Voltage Division: V1 = Vsource * (R1/(R1+R2))
The Attempt at a Solution
I wasn't really sure how to go about this one. I know that Req = Vs/Is, so I set about trying to find a way to get that in terms of the given values, but to no avail- I don't know whether to treat this as a series circuit or parallel based on the independent source (since if it's parallel one of the paths is just the dependent current source with no resistors).
I tried using voltage division to solve for Vx, but I don't really know what good that will do me, or if I even can do that in this situation.
I'd really appreciate some direction here. Thanks.
