LTspice iv Laplace circuit design help

In summary, to find Io(t) for t>0 using Ltspice 4, you will need to create a circuit with a voltage source, a 10ohm resistor, a current dependent current source, a ground symbol, a 20ohm resistor, a 10uF capacitor, and a time variable. Set the values for the components and run the simulation to plot the current through the 10ohm resistor, which will be the output Io(t).

The Attempt at a Solution



Here is what i have so far. I am unsure if i have the voltage source on the left correct or not. I am also stuck on how to use the current dependent current source from the 10ohm resistor on the left.

Hi there,

To find Io(t) for t>0 using Ltspice 4, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Open Ltspice 4 and create a new schematic.

2. Add a voltage source on the left side of the circuit, with the positive terminal connected to a node and the negative terminal connected to ground.

3. Add a 10ohm resistor connected to the positive terminal of the voltage source and a current dependent current source connected to the negative terminal of the voltage source.

4. Double click on the current dependent current source and set the value to I=10*R1, where R1 is the value of the 10ohm resistor.

5. Add a ground symbol to the circuit.

6. Add a resistor with a value of 20ohm connected to the positive terminal of the current dependent current source and a capacitor with a value of 10uF connected to the negative terminal of the current dependent current source.

7. Add a ground symbol to the right side of the circuit.

8. Double click on the voltage source and set the value to V=10*sin(2*pi*50*t), where t is the time variable.

9. Double click on the capacitor and set the initial condition to V=0.

10. Run the simulation and plot the current through the 10ohm resistor, which will be the output Io(t).

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions. Good luck with your simulation!
