10-3 General Circuit Analysis (Sects. 10–4–10–6)

Given a linear circuit:

(a) Determine the initial conditions (if not given) and transform the circuit into the s domain.

(b) Solve for zero-state and zero-input response transforms and waveforms using node-voltage or meshcurrent methods.

(c) Identify the forced and natural poles in the responses, or select circuit parameters to place the natural poles at specified locations
