Assume that this waveform is applied to a series RCcircuit with R 10 kΩand
C 1 μF from t 0. The time constant is 10 ms. Output is taken across the capacitor. The
total zero-state response can be obtained by using superposition principle. Therefore, we
expect the standard step response scaled by 0.2 to be present along with other components
in the output. This step response component will reach steady-state in about 5
τ
,i.e., in 50 ms
and then contribute 0.2 V steady component to the output.
The pure alternating component of the applied voltage will also reach a periodic
steady-state at the output after about 50 ms. We remember that this alternating ...
