EET 300 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Rl Circuit, Transient State, Signal Generator
Document Summary
Rc/rl networks are often used in timing circuits for oscillators, 555 timers, motors, etc. 5v general equation for the voltage across the resistor will be: Next, we need to determine the initial and steady state voltages. In an rl circuit the initial current would be 0 therefore the initial resistor voltage would also be 0v. If given enough time the current in a series rl circuit will maximize therefore, the voltage across the resistor will maximize to 5v. Now, solve for the time required to reach 2. 5v. The key to this was the use of the natural log which is the opposite of the exponential. Eet 300 || chapter 4 (d) lesson notes timing circuits. For this transient analysis, the minimum number of time points was set to 200. Also, the r and l positions have been switched, which enables the voltage to be measured across r. no effort was made to format this graph.
