Laboratory Preliminary Discussion First-order Low-pass RC Filter Analysis The first-order low-pass RC filter shown in figure 1 below represents all voltages and currents in the time domain. It is of course possible to solve for all circuit voltages using time domain differential equation techniques, but it is more efficient to convert the circuit to its s-domain equivalent as shown in figure 2 and apply Laplace transform techniques. vs(t) i₁(t) + R₁ ww V₁(t) 12(t) Lic(t) Vout(t) = V2(t) R₂ Vc(t) C Vc(t) VR2(t) = V2(t) + Vs(s) Figure 1: A first-order low-pass RC filter represented in the time domain.

- Solve it in a different way than the previous solution that I searched forarrow_forwardA lossless uncharged transmission line of length L = 0.45 cm has a characteristic impedance of 60 ohms. It is driven by an ideal voltage generator producing a pulse of amplitude 10V and width 2 nS. If the transmission line is connected to a load of 200 ohms, sketch the voltage at the load as a function of time for the interval 0 < t < 20 nS. You may assume that the propagation velocity of the transmission is c/2. Answered now answer number 2. Repeat Q.1 but now assume the width of the pulse produced by the generator is 4 nS. Sketch the voltage at the load as a function of time for 0 < t < 20 nS.arrow_forwardSolve this experiment with an accurate solution, please. Thank you.arrow_forward
