Comsats University Islamabad, Islamabad Campus: Lab Report # 12

1) The document describes a lab report analyzing the sinusoidal response of an RLC circuit. It lists the equipment used and includes theoretical calculations of current and voltages in the circuit at 30kHz. 2) Practical measurements were then taken using an oscilloscope and multimeter. Voltages across the resistor, inductor and capacitor were measured. 3) The post-lab questions discuss underdamped vs overdamped response, the behavior of RLC circuits at low and high frequencies, and the significance of phase in sinusoidal circuit analysis.

Lab 11: To analyze the sinusoidal response of RLC Circuit
Equipment Required
1. Resistor (200Ω)
2. Capacitor (2.2µF)
3. Inductor: 5mH
4. Breadboard
5. Oscilloscope
6. Connecting wires
7. Function generator
8. Digital multi-meter (DMM)
9. LCR Meter

Task (1): (Theoretical Analysis)

Task 1. Using the LCR, measure the actual values of the circuit elements:

R = 200, L = 2.18mH, C = 923uF

Task 2. For f = 30 kHz, calculate circuit current is, and element voltages VR, VL and VC.

2.1. ω = 2f = 188495.5


2.2. R = ZR= 200 ohms
2.3. XL = ZL = jωL = 410.920
2.4. XC = ZC = 1/jωC= 173.98
2.5. R+J(XL - XC) = Zen = ZR + ZL + ZC = 784.8

Task 3. For V = 1/0o volts

3.1. IS = V/Zen = 0.00127A


3.2. VR = IS x ZR = 0.2458V
3.3. VL = IS x ZL = 0.521V
3.4. VC = IS x ZC = 0.220V

Task (2): (Practical Measurement)


Task 1. Using the oscilloscope, ensure that the source output is 1V amplitude (2VP-P) at 30 KHz.
Task 2. Using millimeter, measure the source voltage. Note that the millimeter reads rams
voltage = 1/1.414 = 0.707 volts
Task 3. Connect Ch. 2 of the oscilloscope across the resistor and select “alt” on the display selection. Make
the appropriate selections for voltage and time scales.
Task 4. Measure the amplitude of VR = 2.00. Measure VR,rms = 2.532 using multimeter.
Task 5. Now measure the horizontal distance between the two waveforms. It is best to observe the
difference at the zero crossing of both signals. You need to ensure that the x-axis of both signals accurately
overlaps. This can be done by selecting GND on both channels and adjusting the up-down knobs.
Task 6. Calculate the phase difference between the two signals.
Task 7. Phase angle = (measured distance / Time period) x 360o
Task 8. Calculate circuit current I = VR/ZR =0.01a
Task 9. Measure VL = 28.00mV
Task 10. Measure VC = 1.80V
Post Lab
Questions:
1) What is the difference between underdamped and overdamped response?
Underdamped: An underdamped response is one that oscillates within a decaying envelope.
The more underdamped the system, the more oscillations and longer it takes to reach steadystate.
Here damping-ratio is always less than one.
Over damped: An over damped response is the response that does not oscillate about the
steady-state value but takes longer to reach steady-state than the critically damped case. Here
damping ratio is greater than one.
2) What is the behavior of RLC circuit at low frequencies and at high frequencies?
At high frequency:
Frequency or the Capacitance is increased the overall capacitive reactance would
decrease. As the frequency approaches infinity the capacitors reactance would reduce to
practically zero causing the circuit element to act like a perfect conductor of 0Ω.
At low frequencies:
The inductors reactance would decrease to zero, causing the opposite effect acting like a
short circuit.
3) What is the significance of phase in sinusoidal circuit analysis?
The phase angle of a sine wave can be used to describe the relationship of one sine wave to
another by using the terms “Leading” and “Lagging” to indicate the relationship between
two sinusoidal waveforms of the same frequency, plotted onto the same reference axis.
