Introduction to Switched Circuits

This section is dedicated to introduce simple circuits that contain electronic devices with a nonsmooth current/voltage characteristic. Examples are RLC circuits with so-called ideal diodes, ideal Zener diodes, ideal switches. The main peculiarities of their dynamics are highlighted through detailed analysis. The parallel with simple nonsmooth mechanical systems is made. Last, but not least, the numerical method that will be used in the remainder of the book is introduced.
