The dependent source in the circuit shown below is [Figure description: A voltage source v (+ on top) on the left in parallel with a resistor carrying current i (arrow down), a dependent current source of value 6i (arrow up), and another resistor on the right; all four elements connected in parallel between the top and bottom rails.]
- A. Voltage-controlled current source
- B. Voltage-controlled voltage source
- C. Current-controlled current source
- D. Current-controlled voltage source
Answer: C. Current-controlled current source
Explanation: The diamond-shaped symbol with arrow represents a current source whose value depends on another branch current (CCCS).
