Why Linear?
We shall consider the steady-state
steady state response of linear ac
circuits to sinusoidal inputs
Linear circuits contain linear components such as resistors,
capacitors
p
and inductors
A linear component has the property that doubling the voltage
across it doubles the current through it
Most circuits for processing signals are linear
Analysis of non-linear circuits is difficult and normally requires
the use of a computer.

Why Sinusoidal?
A linear circuit will not change the waveform or frequency of a
sinusoidal input (the amplitude and phase may be altered)
Power is generated as a sinusoid by rotating electrical
machinery
Sinusoidal

Any periodic waveform can be considered to be the sum of a

frequency f :
v (t ) = v 0 sin 2ft = v 0 sin t

Slide 14

Representation of Sinusoids
The sinusoid can have a phase term :
v (t ) = v 0 sin(t + )

A phase shift is equivalent to a time shift -/

The phase is positive so the red trace leads the green trace

A complex exponential input to a linear ac circuits results in all
voltages and currents being complex exponentials
Of course real voltages are not complex
The real voltages and currents in the circuit are simply the real
parts of the complex exponentials
Complex exponential:

Slide 55

Phasors
If the input voltage to a circuit is a complex exponential:
v cin (t ) = v 0e jt

then all other voltages and currents are also complex


exponentials:
v c1(t ) = v1e j (t +1) = v1e j1e jt = V1e jt
i c 2 (t ) = i 2e j (t +2 ) = i 2e j2 e jt = I2e jt

where V1 and I2 are time-independent voltage and current


phasors:

V1 = v1e
I2 = i 2e j2

where x and y can be voltages or currents
The corresponding phasors are X(j) and Y(j)
The real input voltage x(t) is a sinusoid of amplitude x0:
x (t ) = x0 cos(t ) = re( x0e jt ) = re( Xe jt )

and the real output voltage y(t) is the real part of the complex

Driving-Point Impedance

James Grimbleby

School of Systems Engineering - Electronic Engineering

Slide 78

Impedance
The impedance Z of a circuit or component is defined to be the
ratio of the voltage and current phasors:
I ( j )
V ( j )

AC Circuit

V ( j )
Z ( j ) =
I ( j )

Impedance Z is analogous to resistance in dc circuits and its


units are ohms
When Z applies to a 2-terminal circuit (rather than simple
component) it is known as the driving-point impedance
James Grimbleby

School of Systems Engineering - Electronic Engineering

Slide 79

Impedance
Z can be written in rectangular form:
Z ( j ) = R( j ) + jX ( j )

where R is the resistance and X is the reactance


Thus:

Z = R2 + X 2
Z = tan

and:

1 X

R = Z cos Z
X = Z sin Z

Decibel
The decibel is a measure of the ratio of two p
powers P1, P2 :

Power in AC Circuits
To calculate the power in a circuit we shall need to make
use of some trigonometric identities:
cos(( A + B ) = cos A cos B sin
i A sin
i B
cos( A B ) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

Adding:
cos( A + B ) + cos( A B ) = 2 cos A cos B

so that:

cos A cos B = {cos( A + B ) + cos( A B )}

The apparent power Pa in a circuit is:

Apparent power is measured in VA

True power is measured in W

Power Factor Correction


Most industrial loads have a poor (pf << 1) power factor
Examples are induction motors and inductor-ballast
inductor ballast lighting
Power factor can be corrected by connecting a reactance in
parallel with the load
This reduces the apparent power and the rms current
without affecting
g the load
This is obviouslyy desirable because it reduces the current
rating of the power wiring and supply

Energy Storage
Reactive components (capacitors and inductors) do not
dissipate power when an ac voltage or current is applied
Power is dissipated only in resistors
Instead reactive components store energy
During an ac cycle reactive components alternately store
energy

Over a complete ac cycle
