Square Pulse Analysis of Nonlinear Resonance A. Keller and S. Bhattacharya
Goals Testing square wave pulse method Understanding the origin of the non-linearity in the RLC circuit Studying the effects of multiple non-linear RLC circuits in a ring lattice.
Method “Excitation” Circuit adjusts to find new equilibrium Similar to a spring with a magnet. Voltage time

Conclusions • Square wave method is an effective method for determining resonance of a circuit • Varactor diodes introduce non-linearity in resonant circuits. • Multiple non-linear resonant circuits create an anharmonic response dependent upon voltage (~3volts).
