Transient Response of First-Order Circuits: RL and RC Examples, Study notes of Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Notes from a university lecture on the transient response of first-order rl and rc circuits. It covers the procedure for finding the transient response, including identifying the variable of interest, determining the initial and final values, and calculating the time constant. The document also includes examples of rl and rc transient analysis, as well as an explanation of how capacitor charging affects digital signals and the modeling of logic gates as rc circuits.

Week 4b, Slide 1EECS42, Spring 2005 Prof. White Notes 1. Midterm 1 – Thursday February 24 in class. Covers through text Sec. 4.3, topics of HW 4. GSIs will review material in discussion sections prior to the exam. No books at the exam, no cell phones, you may bring one 8-1/2 by 11 sheet of notes (both sides of page OK), you may bring a calculator, and you don’t need a blue book. Week 4b, Slide 2EECS42, Spring 2005 Prof. White Lecture Week 4b OUTLINE – Transient response of 1st-order circuits – Application: modeling of digital logic gate Reading Chapter 4 through Section 4.3 Week 4b, Slide 5EECS42, Spring 2005 Prof. White Procedure (cont’d) 3. Calculate the final value of the variable (its value as t ∞) • Again, make use of the fact that an inductor behaves like a short circuit in steady state (t ∞) or that a capacitor behaves like an open circuit in steady state (t ∞) 4. Calculate the time constant for the circuit τ = L/R for an RL circuit, where R is the Thévenin equivalent resistance “seen” by the inductor τ = RC for an RC circuit where R is the Thévenin equivalent resistance “seen” by the capacitor Week 4b, Slide 6EECS42, Spring 2005 Prof. White Example: RL Transient Analysis Find the current i(t) and the voltage v(t): t = 0 i + v – R = 50 Ω Vs = 100 V + − L = 0.1 H 1. First consider the inductor current i 2. Before switch is closed, i = 0 --> immediately after switch is closed, i = 0 3. A long time after the switch is closed, i = Vs / R = 2 A 4.

The output of the digital circuit changes between logic 0 and logic 1 as computations are performed.
