This can work if you know the tricks. VSA creates Signal Flow Graphs (SFG) and applies Mason’s Rule also known as Mason’s Gain Formula (MGF) to create input-output transfer functions (circuit gain ...

You will need complex arithmetic to evaluate a gain equation, but not in the formula derivation A simple way to create a gain equations is via a Signal Flow Graph (SFG). Mason’s Gain Formula is the ...

Mathematical models of systems and linear approximations. Transfer functions of linear systems, block diagrams and signal flow graphs. Sensitivity, control of transient response, disturbance signals.
