Response of First-Order Circuits RL Circuits RC Circuits ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 1
The Natural Response of a Circuit • The currents and voltages that arise when energy stored in an inductor or capacitor is suddenly released into a resistive circuit. • These “signals” are determined by the circuit itself, not by external sources! ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 2
Step Response • The sudden application of a DC voltage or current source is referred to as a “step”. • The step response consists of the voltages and currents that arise when energy is being absorbed by an inductor or capacitor. ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 3
Circuits for Natural Response • Energy is “stored” in an inductor (a) as an initial current. • Energy is “stored” in a capacitor (b) as an initial voltage. ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 4
General Configurations for RL • If the independent sources are equal to zero, the circuits simplify to ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 5
Natural Response of an RL Circuit • Consider the circuit shown. • Assume that the switch has been closed “for a long time”, and is “opened” at t=0. ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 6
What does “for a long time” Mean? • All of the currents and voltages have reached a constant (dc) value. • What is the voltage across the inductor just before the switch is opened? ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 7
Just before t = 0 • The voltage across the inductor is equal to zero. • There is no current in either resistor. • The current in the inductor is equal to IS. ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 8
Just after t = 0 • The current source and its parallel resistor R 0 are disconnected from the rest of the circuit, and the inductor begins to release energy. ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 9

The current in an inductor cannot change instantaneously • Let the time just before switching be called t(0 -). • The time just after switching will be called t(0+). • For the inductor, ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 13

Procedure to Determine the Natural Response of an RL Circuit • Find the initial current through the inductor. • Find the time constant, τ, of the circuit (L/R). • Generate i(t) from I 0 and τ using ECE 201 Circuit Theory I 23
