Engineering Why Is My Series RLC Circuit Simulation Not Working as Expected in PSpice?

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on troubleshooting a series RLC circuit simulation in PSpice, specifically regarding underdamped, overdamped, and critically damped responses. The user is working with a 1uF capacitor, a 150uH inductor, and resistors of 10, 20, and 40 ohms but is not getting the expected graph behavior, particularly in the underdamped case. Participants suggest clarifying whether the user is analyzing steady-state or transient responses and recommend sharing circuit setups and plots for better assistance. Initial conditions in the transient response setup are also highlighted as a potential area for adjustment. Proper configuration and expectations are crucial for achieving accurate simulation results in PSpice.

i m trying to design RLC series circuit on Pspice and parctically showing Under , Over and , Critical response
i have capacitor of 1uF an inductor of 150uH and resistor ( can choose any) but for these responses 10,40,20 ohms respectivly but the graph is not coming as it should be like it is decreasing from 0 in underdamp please help me in Pspice or give me some help that i can do...

To show those behaviours, do you look at steady-state or transient response? If transient, how do you set up some initial conditions?

Please show us some of your PSPICE circuits and plots so that we can help you more. Also tell us what you expect, and what doesn't look right to you yet.
