First Order Linear Differential Equations
A first order homogeneous linear differential equation is one of the form
dy
py=0
dt
where "First Order'' indicates that both dy/dt and y occur to the first power
and "homogeneous'' refers to the zero on the right hand side of the equation
In circuit analysis, y can either be the voltage v or the current i of the circuit
The solution of a homogeneous linear differential equation is called a
complementary function
●
In circuit analysis, we refer to the solution of the circuit as a natural response
or a transient response
K. A. Saaifan, Jacobs University, Bremen
A Direct Approach
Since the variables can be separated, the differential equation can be rewritten as
dy
=−p dt
y
We integrate both sides as
dy
∫ y =−p∫ d t
Then, we have
ln yt=−p tA
The constant of integration must be selected to satisfy the initial condition y(0)=Y0
ln Y 0 =A
Thus, we obtain
ln yt=−p tln Y 0

y t=Y 0 e

A General Solution Approach
We assume a general solution of y(t) in exponential form

where A and s are constant to be determined
Substitute the exponential solution into the differential equation

Determine the inductor voltage v in the circuit for t > 0.
For t<0, l0 V appears across the 4 Ω
resistor, so a dc current of iL= l0/4 = 2.5 A
flows through the inductor (which acts as a
short circuit)
For t>0, the battery is removed so we write
the simple KVL equation:

Noting carefully how the circuit changes once the switch in the circuit is
thrown, determine v(t) at t = 0 and at t = 160 μs
Before the switch is thrown, the 80Ω resistor is connected only by one of its
terminals and therefore may be ignored (i=0)
With no current flow permitted through the capacitor, we know v(0)=50 V
since the capacitor voltage cannot change in zero time
After the switch is thrown, the only remaining circuit is a simple source-free
RC circuit. With τ = RC =160 μs

8.3 A More General Perspective
General RL Circuits
The time constant of a single-inductor circuit will be τ=L/Req where Req is the
resistance seen by the inductor
Example: Req=R3+R4+R1R2/ (R1+R2)
General RC Circuits
The time constant of a single-capacitor circuit will be τ=ReqC, where Req is the
resistance seen by the capacitor
Example: Req=R2+R1R3/ (R1+R3)

1st Order Response Observations
The voltage on a capacitor or the current through an inductor is the same
prior to and after a switch at t=0
Resistor current (or voltage) prior to the switch i(0-) can be different from
the voltage after the switch i(0+)
All voltages and currents in an RC or RL circuit follow the same natural
response e-t/τ

8.4 The Unit-Step Function
So far, we have been studying the natural response of RL and RC circuits (when no
sources or forcing functions were present)
In other words, we have been solving problems in which energy sources are
suddenly removed from the circuit
We shall consider that type of response which results when energy sources are
suddenly applied to a circuit
The unit-step function u(t) is a convenient notation to represent change:
{
ut= 0 t0

{
ut−t0 = 0

tt0

Switches and Steps
In order to obtain an exact equivalent for the voltage-step forcing function, we
may provide a single-pole double-throw switch
The exact equivalent for the current-step forcing function, we may replace this
circuit by a dc source in series with a switch

The Natural response: The exponential term has the functional form of the
natural response of the RL circuit; it is a negative exponential, it approaches
zero as time increases, and it is characterized by the time constant L/R
The Forced response: It is the response that is present a long time after the
switch is closed

The solution of any linear differential equation may be expressed as the sum of
two parts: the complementary solution (natural response) and the particular
solution (forced response)
