I believe this is called the "duality principle". Should be part of any introductory EE circuit analysis course, i would look to such a textbook for details. Its been years since i've looked at mine, and I can't recall ever actually using it except in class. There's a little bit more to it IIRC; you have to replace voltage sources by current sources, resistances by conductances, and swap inductance for capacitance. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
