Lecture 12 Transfer function concept

Definition of transfer function Transfer function is defined as the ratio of Laplace transform of output signal Y(s) and input signal X(s) at zero initial conditions Sometimes transfer function is denoted also by T(s) 3

Definition of transfer function (cont. ) Voltage transfer function Current transfer function 4

Definition of transfer function (cont. ) Voltage-to-current transfer function Current-to-voltage transfer function Special case of transfer function is the input impedance 5

Transfer function of RLC circuits Each RLC element has its operator description General form of transfer function 6

Impulse and step responses Impulse response is the time response of the circuit for Dirac impulse excitation at zero initial conditions Step response is the time response of the circuit for unity Heaviside excitation at zero initial conditions 7

Example Transfer function of the circuit is given in the form Impulse response Step response 8

Example (cont. ) Impulse response 9 Step response

Stability of linear circuits Stability BIBO (Bounded Input – Bounded Output): the circuit is stable if at bounded input excitation the output signal is also bounded at any time t. 10 Dependence of stability on the placement of poles

Frequency characteristics 12 Spectral transfer function is the frequency characteristics of the circuit. It represents the dependence of output signal on the frequncy at the sinusoidal input signal of unity magnitude and changing frequency. • Magnitude characteristics (magnitude of spectral function) • Phase characteristics (phase of spectral function) • Logarithmic magnitude characteristics
