3 Parallel RLC Circuit Consider the parallel RLC circuit:
4
4 Parallel RLC Circuit There is an initial voltage across the capacitor. There is an initial current thorough the inductor.

5 Applying Kirchhoff’s Current Law at the top node:
6
6 Differentiating with respect to t gives :
7
7 Or:
8
8 This is the second-order, linear differential equation that describes the behavior of the circuit.
9
9 Based on experience with first-order circuits, we assume a solution of the form:
10
10 Substitute the assumed solution into the differential equation:
11
11 Substitute the assumed solution into the differential equation:
12
12 This may be factored:
13
13 This requires that:
14
14 This is called the Characteristic Equation of the differential equation The Characteristic equation determines the behavior of the circuit.
15
15 This equation has roots given by the quadratic equation:
16
16 The two roots are given by:
17
17 These are the Characteristic Roots of the differential equation.
18
18 To aid in characterizing the equation we define:
19
19 So the Characteristic Roots may be written:
20
20 The solution to the differential equation is:
21
21 The solution will be different depending on the roots of the characteristic equation. There are three cases 1.Real, un-equal roots – The Over-damped Condition. 2.Real, equal roots – The Critically Damped Condition. 3.Complex Conjugate Roots – The Under-damped Condition.
