Lecture 8, Slide 2EECS40, Fall 2004Prof. White First-Order Circuits A circuit that contains only sources, resistors and an inductor is called an RL circuit. A circuit that contains only sources, resistors and a capacitor is called an RC circuit. RL and RC circuits are called first-order circuits because their voltages and currents are described by first-order differential equations. –+–+ vsvs L R –+–+ vsvs C R ii

Lecture 8, Slide 3EECS40, Fall 2004Prof. White The natural response of an RL or RC circuit is its behavior (i.e., current and voltage) when stored energy in the inductor or capacitor is released to the resistive part of the network (containing no independent sources). The step response of an RL or RC circuit is its behavior when a voltage or current source step is applied to the circuit, or immediately after a switch state is changed.

Lecture 8, Slide 8EECS40, Fall 2004Prof. White Transient vs. Steady-State Response The momentary behavior of a circuit (in response to a change in stimulation) is referred to as its transient response. The behavior of a circuit a long time (many time constants) after the change in voltage or current is called the steady-state response.

Lecture 8, Slide 9EECS40, Fall 2004Prof. White Review (Conceptual) Any* first-order circuit can be reduced to a Thévenin (or Norton) equivalent connected to either a single equivalent inductor or capacitor. –In steady state, an inductor behaves like a short circuit –In steady state, a capacitor behaves like an open circuit –+–+ V Th C R Th L I Th
