Overview
Getting Started
In this lab activity, you will simulate series
and parallel RL and RC circuits in Multisim,
and then verify the simulation by manually
analyzing the circuits using impedance
formulas. You will then construct the
circuits and compare your data with the
simulations. Finally you will present your
results in table and graph form in Excel.
Lab Activity and Deliverables:
It should take students approximately 2
hours to complete the lab activity, and 1
hour of homework time to complete the lab
report.
Before Starting This Activity
The student should be able to:
 Perform basic word processing and
spreadsheet editing
 Perform basic MultiSim circuit
simulation and editing
 Operate the NI-ELVIS hardware and
VIs.
 Calculate XL and XC

Task #1 – Series RL Circuit
1. Download the lab worksheet
E60lab2.xlsx and the four MultiSim
files, E60Lab2-(RL1, RL2, RC1,
RC2).ms10, from the GoogleDocs site.
Open the worksheet in Excel and open
the E60Lab2-RL1 file in MultiSim.

2. Note that this simulation uses the
Measurement Probe tool to display
multiple circuit measurements at the
points labeled Probe 1 and Probe 2. The
voltage displayed is relative to the circuit
ground, and the current is flowing
through the wire at that point. To display
the voltage across R1 we use the virtual
meter because neither terminal of R1
connects to ground.
3. Use the AC analysis tool to measure the
following, from 100 Hz to 1Mhz. Use 5
steps per decade.
4. Series current, I(probe 1)
5. Source voltage, V(probe 1)
6. Voltage across L1, V(probe2)
7. Export the data to Excel. Copy and paste
the data into the appropriate cells of the
table in Part 1 of the worksheet (on the
Series RL tab).
8. If necessary, open the Grapher window
(from the VIEW menu in MultiSim).
Note the small red arrow next to the
Magnitude display on the left side of the
window. Click on the Phase graph and
note that the red arrow points to the

phase graph. Repeat the data export to
Excel, only this time the phase data will
be exported. Copy and paste the data
into the appropriate cells of the table in
Part 1 of the worksheet.
9. For the 10 kHz, 158 kHz, and 1 MHz
frequencies, calculate XL and Z for the
circuit, converting the rectangular
notation to polar form. Calculate the
current flow by dividing the impedance
into the source voltage and express the
result in polar form. Enter your results in
Table 2.
10. Build the circuit on the ELVIS
protoboard and measure the source and
inductor voltages and phase shift at the
same frequencies in step 6 with the
oscilloscope virtual instrument. Can you
accurately collect all the data? Can you
see the same phase relationship as you
saw in the simulation? Explain why or
why not in the Summary Sheet. Enter
your results in Table 2.
