Convolution Integral
• Convolution is a powerful tool first introduced here
• Convolution is performed in the time domain via
t
t

0
f (t ) f1 (t ) f 2 ( ) d f1 ( ) f 2 (t ) d
• The same operation is more easily accomplished via
L f (t ) F (s) F (s) F (s)
L f (t ) F (s)
L f (t ) F (s)

• Convolution in the time domain corresponds to
multiplication in the frequency domain

Class Example
• Let’s use the convolution integral to find the step
response to a simple uncharged series RC circuit
whose time constant is 0.5 sec, that is, the impulse
response and the input are
h(t) = f1(t) = 2e-2t
f2(t) = u(t)
• Now, check your answer from above by inverting
{F1(s)·F2(s)}. Which was quicker and easier?

Initial Value Theorem
• The initial value theorem states
lim f (t ) lim s F ( s)
t 0
s
• Oftentimes we must use L'Hopital's Rule:
– If g(x)/h(x) has the indeterminate form 0/0 or / at x=c,
then
g ( x)
g ' ( x)
lim
lim
x c h ( x )
x c h' ( x )

Final Value Theorem
• The final value theorem states
lim f (t ) lim s F ( s )
t
s 0
• The initial and final value theorems are useful for
determining initial and steady-state conditions,
respectively, for transient circuit solutions when we
don’t need the entire time domain answer and we
don’t want to perform the inverse Laplace transform

Laplace Circuit Applications
• As a transition to Chapter 14, let’s use the Laplace
transform method to solve a simple transient circuit
problem
• The step-by-step solution procedure is
(1) Find the initial conditions for the circuit
(2) Write a differential equation for the circuit
(3) Laplace transform the differential equation
(4) Manipulate s-domain eq. for desired variable
(5) Perform inverse Laplace transform
