Answer:

As its name implies, a current source is a circuit element that maintains a constant current flow regardless of the voltage developed across its terminals as this voltage is determined by other circuit elements. That is, an ideal constant current source continually provides a specified amount of current regardless of the impedance that it is driving and as such, an ideal current source could, in theory, supply an infinite amount of energy. So just as a voltage source may be rated, for example, as 5 volts or 10 volts, etc, a current source will also have a current rating, for example, 3 amperes or 15 amperes, etc.

Ideal constant current sources are represented in a similar manner to voltage sources, but this time the current source symbol is that of a circle with an arrow inside to indicates the direction of the flow of the current. The direction of the current will correspond to the polarity of the corresponding voltage, flowing out from the positive terminal. The letter “i” is used to indicate that it is a current source as shown.

Ideal Current Source

Then an ideal current source is called a “constant current source” as it provides a constant steady state current independent of the load connected to it producing an I-V characteristic represented by a straight line. As with voltage sources, the current source can be either independent (ideal) or dependent (controlled) by a voltage or current elsewhere in the circuit, which itself can be constant or time-varying.

Ideal independent current sources are typically used to solve circuit theorems and for circuit analysis techniques for circuits that containing real active elements. The simplest form of a current source is a resistor in series with a voltage source creating currents ranging from a few milli-amperes to many hundreds of amperes. Remember that a zero-value current source is an open circuit as R = 0.

The concept of a current source is that of a two-terminal element that allows the flow of current indicated by the direction of the arrow. Then a current source has a value, i, in units of amperes, (A) which are typically abbreviated to amps. The physical relationship between a current source and voltage variables around a network is given by Ohm’s law as these voltage and current variables will have specified values.

It may be difficult to specify the magnitude and polarity of voltage of an ideal current source as a function of the current especially if there are other voltage or current sources in the connected circuit. Then we may know the current supplied by the current source but not the voltage across it unless the power supplied by the current source is given, as P = V*I.

However, if the current source is the only source within the circuit, then the polarity of voltage across the source will be easier to establish. If however there is more than one source, then the terminal voltage will be dependent upon the network in which the source is connected.

Connecting Current Sources Together

Just like voltage sources, ideal current sources can also be connected together to increase (or decrease) the available current. But there are rules on how two or more independent current sources with different values can be connected, either in series
