Read the RC-transient class notes.


For the circuit shown,

  • R = 1.2 kΩ
  • C = 2.2 nF

For the RC circuit, the current source has been at an initial value of Ii = -9 mA for a long time. At t = 0, the source current abruptly jumps to If = 20 mA.

Determine the expression for the capacitor voltage as a function of time, for t > 0.
