Course: Elec 153 Section: Module 4 Lab Title: Parallel Networks Abstract: In this experiment, I will be learning how to measure and calculate current in a parallel RC circuit in polar form. For my calculation, I will calculate the impedance and use ohms law to find the current mathematically. For the measurement, I will use an oscilloscope to calculate the phase shift and calculate the current drop across the shunt resistor. Introduction: The experiment of parallel RC current measurements and calculations will be done with 2 parallel RC circuits. The first circuit will have a 24-volt peak power supply at 1k Hz, a 1-ohm shunt resistor in series with a 2200-ohm resistor, and a 40 nF capacitor in parallel. The second circuit has the exact layout but use 5k Hz. I will use an oscilloscope to measure the phase shift across the shunt resistor and calculate the current source and the capacitor’s current via the voltage drop of the shunt resistor. Results: 1K Hz Parallel RC Circuit For the first circuit, I measured the voltage drop across the shunt resistor in the circuit below. I calculated the current in polar form and phase shift. Afterward, I verified the current through the voltage drop of the shunt resistor using ohms law.
