Lecture 05 - 8

Source-free RC Circuit
A source-free RC circuit occurs when its dc source is suddenly
disconnected. The energy stored in the capacitor is released to
the resistor.
When a bias voltage V0 is switched off at time t=0, the initial
voltage across the capacitor is given by v(0) = V0

Source-free RL Circuit
A source-free RL circuit occurs when its dc source is suddenly
disconnected. The energy stored in the inductor is released to
the resistor.
When a current source I0 is switched off at time t=0, the initial
current flowing through the inductor is given by i (0) = I 0

and before it opens at t = 0.

Lecture 05 - 27

Application: Photoflash Unit


R1: current-limiting resistor
(Large)

Resistance of Flash lamp


(small)
The battery (dc voltage supply) has a limited output current.
Directly connecting it to the flash lamp may exceed the current
limit and may damage the battery.
Solution

SYSU - 2010 Spring

Lecture 05 - 28

First, use the batter to charge a capacitor through a larger resistor


R1 (switch to position 1). The maximum current drawn from the
battery is VS/R1.
The charging time is about five times the time constant R1C:

tcharge = 5 R1C

(This time constant is large and it is why sometimes you need to


wait a while before you press the flash button of a camera)
SYSU - 2010 Spring

Lecture 05 - 29

To flash the lamp, switch is thrown to position 2.


The capacitor is discharged. The low resistance R2 of the
photolamp permits a high discharging current with peak
I2=VS/R2 in a short duration. The discharging time is:
tdischarge = 5R2C

Application: Automobile Ignition Circuit

By creating a large voltage (thousands of volts) between the


electrodes, a spark is formed across the air gap, thereby
igniting the fuel.
How can we create such a high voltage from the car battery,
which supplies only 12V?

Summary
z

1st order circuit consists of one energy storage


element (capacitor or inductor)
The circuit equation corresponds to a 1st order
differential equation
To solve the differential equation, need to determine
the initial conditions of the circuit, i.e. capacitor =
open circuit; inductor = short circuit given long
enough time before switching
For capacitor: vc (t ) = Vs + (Vo Vs )e
For inductor: iL (t ) = I s + ( I 0 I s )e
