OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES (cont) (cont)

Determine the total voltages and currents that have DC and AC components.

Apply Ohm’s Law, KCL, and KVL to analyze a simple AC circuit.

Write the time domain equation for any sinusoidal waveform with a DC component.

SINE WAVESSINE WAVES

Voltage can be produced such that, over time, it follows the shape of a sine wave

The magnitude of the voltage continually changes.

Polarity may or may not change. When it does not change, the current does not

change direction. When polarity does change, the current changes

direction. When graphing a sinusoidal voltage, the polarity

changes only when the magnitude alternates between “+” and “-” values.

Electromagnetic Induction. (Ship AC generators produce sine wave voltages through electromagnetic induction): magnetic field conductor relative motion between the two.

Electronic Signal Generators Function Generators: multi-waveforms.

GENERATING AC GENERATING AC VOLTAGESVOLTAGES

One way to generate ac voltage is to rotate a coil of wire at constant angular velocity in a fixed magnetic field

FARADAY’S LAWFARADAY’S LAW

“ “ Voltage is induced in a circuit Voltage is induced in a circuit whenever the flux linking (i.e. whenever the flux linking (i.e. passing through) the circuit is passing through) the circuit is changing.. and that the magnitude changing.. and that the magnitude of the voltage is proportional to the of the voltage is proportional to the rate of change of the flux linkages”rate of change of the flux linkages”

The period of a waveform can be measured between any two corresponding point.

Often it is measured between zero points because they are easy to establish on an oscilloscope trace

Figure shows an oscilloscope trace of a square wave. Each horizontal division represents 50 μs. Determine the frequency.

Since the wave repeats itself every 200 μs, its period (T) is 200 μs and,

SolutionSolution

Time interval T1 does not represent a period as it is not measured between corresponding points. Interval T2, however, is. Thus, T = 10 ms and,

COMPATIBILITY OF VALUESCOMPATIBILITY OF VALUES

When Peak voltages are used as source values, current calculations will also be in Peak values.

Likewise, an RMS source produces answers in RMS.

When solving a problem make sure all values are expressed ONE way (peak, peak to peak, or RMS)!

ANGULAR DOMAINANGULAR DOMAIN

We can identify points on the sine wave in terms of an angular measurement (degrees or radians). The instantaneous value of the sine wave can

be related to the angular rotation of the generator, (1 rotation = 1 rotation = 360°=2360°=2 radians radians)

TIME DOMAINTIME DOMAIN

Because the time to complete a cycle is frequency dependent, we can also identify points on the sine wave in terms of time.

To convert between the time domain and angular domain remember:

PHASE ANGLEPHASE ANGLE

Symbol is (theta). It is expressed as an angle

Phase angle specifies the lateral shift in the position of a sine wave from a reference wave.

Examine the same event, on each wave: Two events occurring at the same angle or

at the same time are in phase. Events occurring at different angles or at

different times are out of phase.

PHASE ANGLE (angular PHASE ANGLE (angular domain)domain)

Wave A is the reference wave:Wave B is 90° out of phase.

PHASE ANGLE (Time domain)PHASE ANGLE (Time domain)

Wave A is the reference wave. Compare the positive peak events: Wave A peaks at 30ms; Wave B at 60ms T=120ms /360º = t/T = (60ms-30ms)/120ms. = 90º

LEADING & LAGGINGLEADING & LAGGING

Since wave B peaked after the reference wave peaked, we say it LAGS the reference wave by 90º ; = - 90º

If wave B was the reference, wave A would peak before the reference wave (B). We would say it LEADS the reference wave;

= + 90º Note: Because it is the reference wave, for ANY reference wave is 0 º

Ex:Ex:Compute the phase angle if:

V1(t) is the reference wave

A circuit can have both a DC voltage source and an AC

We say that the “AC rides on the DC” The graph of the voltage is displaced

vertically from 0, to the DC voltage level. Algebraically:
