I rewrite my definition of a voltage source, but I'm not sure if it's well written.
A dependent source is a circuit element that supplies energy to it. The magnitude of this energy is a function of a variable of the circuit (current or voltage) present on another element of the circuit. The dependent source can be thought of as formed by a control part and a controlled part.
I'm not sure about the "present on another element of the circuit". I think I could write: "of another element of the circuit". or "on another element of the circuit".
The part you're not sure about makes sense to me. I just think you should rephrase the first sentence. I'm confused as to what supplies energy to what.
A dependent source is a circuit element that supplies energy to the rest of the circuit.
Thank you, I'm not a native speaker so I feel confused often =P
No problem! That sentence sounds better now.(:
Thank you =)!
