Ferroresonance or nonlinear resonance is a rare [1] type of resonance in electric circuits which occurs when a circuit containing a nonlinear inductance is fed from a source that has series capacitance, and the circuit is subjected to a disturbance such as opening of a switch. [2]
In a regulator not employing droop, when the load is suddenly increased very rapidly (i.e. a transient), the output voltage will momentarily sag. Conversely, when a heavy load is suddenly disconnected, the voltage will show a peak. The output decoupling capacitors have to "absorb" these transients before the control loop has a chance to ...
Damped oscillation is a typical transient response, where the output value oscillates until finally reaching a steady-state value. In electrical engineering and mechanical engineering, a transient response is the response of a system to a change from an equilibrium or a steady state. The transient response is not necessarily tied to abrupt ...
The series RLC can be analyzed for both transient and steady AC state behavior using the Laplace transform. [16] If the voltage source above produces a waveform with Laplace-transformed V ( s ) (where s is the complex frequency s = σ + jω ), the KVL can be applied in the Laplace domain:
A transient-voltage-suppression diode can respond to over-voltages faster than other common over-voltage protection components such as varistors or gas discharge tubes. The actual clamping occurs in roughly one picosecond , but in a practical circuit the inductance of the wires leading to the device imposes a higher limit.
In the case of sinusoidal steady-state (i.e., when a pure sinusoidal voltage is applied and transients have ceased), the voltage and current take the form of single-tone sine waves: [13] (,) = { } , (,) = { } , where is the angular frequency of the steady-state wave.
Transient noise Operating point analysis — determines the dc operating point of the circuit with inductors shorted and capacitors opened. Operating point sweep analysis — determines the values of output variables while one or two specified independent voltage or current source is stepped over
In electrical engineering, spikes are fast, short duration electrical transients in voltage (voltage spikes), [1] current (current spikes), or transferred energy (energy spikes) in an electrical circuit. Fast, short duration electrical transients (overvoltages) in the electric potential of a circuit are typically caused by [2] Lightning strikes ...
