Voltage divider circuit: Maximum power delivered to load Consider a voltage divider circuit with a variable load resistance. An important thing to know is the value of the load resistance for maximum energy to be transferred from the source to the load. Achieving this goal of maximum energy transferred to as impedance matching. We will model the voltage divider circuit shown in figure 3 to find the value of the load resistance to achieve maximum energy transfer from source to load. Fig. 3. Voltage divider circuit with a variable load. The script CR002.m can be used to model a voltage divider circuit to find the maximum load. The input parameters are changed within the script. % INPUTS =============================================== % source emf emf = 10; % Resistance values R1 R2 R3 R4 R = [0 100 200 400]; % Load resistance R4 = Rload RLmin = 10; RLmax = 1000;
