Objectives :
1) To study the voltage and current response of capacitor under the application of step response

2) To study the series and parallel combinations of capacitors

3) To study the phase relation between current and voltage on the capacitor under AC excitation.

Introduction :
In this experiment a basic RC circuit will be analyzed under both step and AC excitations. The
RC circuit is an essential circuit used in many applications such as the design of low pass,
high pass, band pass, band stop filters. It is also used in the design of relaxation oscillators.
Step response analysis

When something changes in a circuit, the voltages and currents adjust

to the new conditions. If the change is an abrupt step the response is

called the step response. This step response happens billions of times

every second inside digital devices. That means this is the most

important analog circuit in digital electronics

AC analysis

If the capacitor is used in a circuit excited by an AC source, then we

analyze the circuit in phaser domain

The phaser domain analysis the need for the use of differential

equations, and when analyzing circuit containing capacitors, the

current leads the voltage by 90°

experimental procedure :
a) Charging and discharging process of a capacitor

1) Connect the circuit shown in Fig.2 and connect the generator with a positive square wave
voltage.

2) Connect channel Ch1 of the oscilloscope to point A for reading out the input voltage
3) Connect channel Ch2 to point B of the oscilloscope for reading out the capacitor voltage
or for presenting the capacitor current.
4) For presentation of the capacitor current replace the resistor 4.7kΩ and the capacitor
0.22μF within the circuit. Then measure the voltage at the resistor.
5) Draw the resulting waveform as you see on the screen of the oscilloscope.

From the measured signals determine


a) The time constant Ꚍ :
Ꚍ = 1.04 ms .

b) The capacitance C :

Ꚍ = RC ➔C = 0.212 μF .

c) The instantaneous voltage on capacitor at 2 ms from the

beginning of the charging time. Confirm the measured

value using calculations .

measured value is v = 5 volts


calculated value: v(2 m ) = 6 * (1 – e(-t/ Ꚍ) )

V = 5.12 volt .

d) The charge on the capacitor Q :


Q = C V ➔ Q = 6 * 0.22 μ = 1.32 μ coulomb.

b) Voltage and current phase shift measurements:


1-Connect the circuit as shown in Figure 3 such that the voltage source is replaced by a
sinusoidal signal whose peak.

to peak amplitude is Vpp=3 volt and f = 1 kHz .
