Transient Response of Resistor-Inductor (RL)
Circuits
Aim:
To study the DC transient response of a series RL circuit .
Apparatus Required :
1k Resistor
33mH Inductor
Cathode Ray Oscilloscope
unction !enerator "3 #h$%
Theory:
In an R&L circuit' (olta)e across the inductor decreases *ith time . Thus' current in
an RL circuit rises to its final (alue e+ponentially accordin) to 1 e
-t/,
. The
e+pression for the current -uild&up across the Inductor is )i(en -y

V/R; V is the applied source (olta)e to the circuit . The response cur(e is
The e+pression for the current decay across the Inductor is )i(en -y.

Design of Experiment :
1e cannot o-ser(e )ro*th current and decay current usin) only a constant DC
supply and s*itches in a CRO -ecause of small time constant . 2o *e use a s3uare
pulse *a(e form so that the pulse chan)es its ma)nitude from a ma)nitude"say
104% to $ero at constant inter(als thus ena-lin) us to o-ser(e the )ro*th"*hen the
ma)nitude of pulse is 104% and decay current "*hen the ma)nitude of pulse is 0% .
The half time period of the pulse is kept as "5,%
!enerally' *hen the elapsed time e+ceeds five time constants "5,% after s*itchin)
has occurred' the currents and (olta)es ha(e reached their final (alue' *hich is also
called steady&state response.
The (olta)e across the resistor is measured -y the CRO *hich is analo)ous to
measurin) the current as I/46R
Circuit Diagram:
Procedure:
Connect the circuit as sho*n in the circuit dia)ram .
7se the function )enerator to )et s3uare pulse of re3uired
fre3uency .
Connect the CRO pro-e across the resistor.
Cali-rate the settin)s in CRO .
O-ser(e the output in the CRO .
Calculation :
The inductor used is not a pure inductor and thus has some resistance .
The e3ui(alent resistance *as measured usin) multimeter.
