Day 20

Phasors: Passive RL Circuit Response Lab

In today's lab we are experimenting with gain and phase response of a passive RL circuit. We can can come up with these theoretical values mathematically and then we can compare them with experimental values.

Pre-Lab

For the pre-lab we were able to calculate values for the amplitude gain and phase difference between the input voltage and input current. We also calculated the cut-off frequency of the circuit. (Both pictures)


What is a lab without a sexy pic of our circuit.


Here we used a function generator to apply a sinusoidal voltage to the circuit. These graphs display the behavior between the voltages (Viewer Discretion Advised).










Overall, the measured values for the experiment held true to the theoretical values of the pre-lab.
