Colby Sexton G00210946 1 Colby Sexton G00210946 Lab # 1 Grantham University May 15, 2023
Colby Sexton G00210946 2 Introduction: During this lab, a schematic for a series RC circuit containing a 12V power supply, two ground sources, 1kohm resistor, and a 500 uF capacitor was created using Multisim. While conducting this lab, calculations were performed and used in a transient analysis for the circuit. While performing the analysis, a table was created and used to compare calculated values and data received from multisim. The goal of this lab is to familiarize with multisim and transient analysis. Equipment/Components: Multisim 12V power supply 1k ohm resistor 500 uF capacitor Two ground sources 2 probes- Voltage and current analysis Formulas & calculations used:

Colby Sexton G00210946 5 Procedure: 1. In step 1 of this lab, the RC series circuit was constructed with a 5% tolerance for each component 2. In step 2, a table was created to store calculated data and data received from multisim 3. In step 3, formulas were used calculate the 5 constant T values for the circuit along with capacitor voltage, and current. Once all calculations were complete, data was placed in the table that was created in step 2. 4. In step 4, a transient analysis for Capacitor voltage and current was performed using multisim. During this analysis, data was recorded from each constant T value. Circuit:

Colby Sexton G00210946 9 Analysis: Before performing this lab, it was expected that all calculations would differ from the analysis performed using multisim. Upon completion of the Transient analysis, it was found that this wasn’t the case. There were no major differences in calculations and measurements. Conclusion: A schematic for a series RC circuit was created with multisim. This circuit was used in a transient analysis to compare pre calculated values in regards to: Constant T Capacitor voltage at each time constant Capacitor current at each time constant Throughout the analysis portion of this lab, there were no major differences between calculations and measurements. The biggest difference being at the second time constant(see values below): Calculated Vc- 10.38V Measured Vc- 10.4V Calculated Ic- 1.604mA Measured Ic- 1.602mA

Colby Sexton G00210946 10 Upon completion of the analysis, it was concluded that calculated values were very close to values from multisim, but weren’t exact. Discussion: Question B: To design a circuit with an applied voltage of 24 volts and a resistor of 1KOhms, that starts at 0V and reaches 24V in 2 seconds, I would first Calculate the capacitance. Working backwards, using 2 seconds as 5T which would also need to be considered fully charged capacitor (24V). This will make 1T=0.4
