The complete response • The combination of natural and step (or forced) responses • For RC circuit, the complete response is: Natural response: Forced response: • Response due to initial energy stored in capacitor • Vo is the initial value, i.e. vc(0) • Response due to the present of the source • Vs is the final value i.e vc() Note: this is what we obtained when we solved the step response with initial energy (or initial voltage) at t =0
The complete response • Complete response is also can be written as the combination of steady state and transient responses: Transient response: Steady state response: • Response that exist long after the excitation is applied • Response that eventually decays to zero as t • For DC excitation, this is the term in the complete response that does not change with time • For DC excitation, this is the term in the complete response that changes with time • This is the final value, (i.e. vc()) • Vo is the initial value (i.e. vc(0)) and Vs is the final value (i.e. vc())
The complete response Complete response of an RL circuit can be written as: (natural response) + (forced response) (steady state response) + (transient response)
The General Solution In general, the response to all variables (voltage or current) in RC or RL circuit can be written as: • x(t) can be v(t) or i(t) for any branch of the RC or RL circuit • x() – final value of x(t) (long after to) • x(to) – initial value of x(t) – for continuous variables, x(to+) = x(to-) For to = 0, the equation becomes :
