Phasors: Passive RL Circuit Response (week 12 - Day 23)

Image of Nodal analysis with phasors

Checking for measured resistance

Calculation of frequency and gain

Setup of circuit. V_L represented by Channel 1

Our wicked graph depicting our calculations, phase shifts, etc.

Notes: 

     The Analog Discovery was not working properly with our magnitude of frequency. A safe range to use with the device was 10kHz to about 20kHz. In our experiment, we input a frequency of 21.5 kHz into the waveform(off by a x10 from our calculation) and we received a reasonable graph from scope. 

     We did not have access to inductors other than the 1μH ones in class; therefore, we could not manipulate the circuits angular frequency.
