1.6 Figure P1.6(a) shows a two-resistor voltage divider. Its function is to generate a voltage VO (smaller than the power-supply voltage VDD) at its output node X. The circuit looking back at node X is equivalent to that shown in Fig. P1.6(b). Observe that this is the Thévenin equivalent of the voltage-divider circuit. Find expressions for VO and RO.
