Introduction to Second
Order Circuit
Natural Response of RLC Circuit
What does Second Order mean?
• Characterized by a second-order
differential equation.
• Consist of resistors and the equivalent of 2
energy storage elements.
Outline
• Initial and Final Values
– Theory
• RL Circuits
• RC Circuits
• Natural RLC Circuit
– Theory
• Series
• Parallel
Thing’s To Remember
• Carefully handle the polarity of voltage v(t).
• Capacitor voltage & inductor current is always
CONTINOUS
υ(0+) = υ(0-) & i(0+) = i(0-)
where
t = 0-(time just before a switching event)
t = 0+(time just after a switching event)
The switching event take place at t=0.
Example
The switch has been closed for a long time. It is open at t=0.
Find;
(a) i(0+), υ(0+)
(b) di(0+)/dt, dυ(0+)/dt
(c) i(∞), υ(∞)
Solution
(a) i(0+), υ(0+)
If the switch closed a long time before t=0, it means that
the circuit has reach dc state at t = 0. At dc steady state, L
acts like s/c, while C acts like an open circuit.

For t>0, the cct undergo transience. But a t∞, the
circuit reach steady state again. L(s/c) & C(o/c).

Example
In the parallel circuit below, find v(t) for t>0,
assuming v(0)=5 V, i(0)=0, L = 1 H, and C=10mF.
Consider these cases: R=1.923 Ω, 5 Ω, and 6.25 Ω.
V(t) = -0.208e-2t + 5.208e-50t V
V(t) = (5 – 5t)e-10t V
V(t) = e-8t (5 cos 6t – 6.67 sin 6t) V
