• Only two sinusoidal values with the same frequency can be
compared by their amplitude and phase difference.
• If phase difference is zero, they are in phase; if phase
difference is not zero, they are out of phase.

• Amplitude and phase difference are two principal
concerns in the study of voltage and current sinusoids.
• Phasor will be defined from the cosine function in all our
proceeding study. If a voltage or current expression is in
the form of a sine, it will be changed to a cosine by
subtracting from the phase.

The differences between v(t) and V:
• v(t) is instantaneous or time-domain
representation
V is the frequency or phasor-domain
representation.
• v(t) is time dependent, V is not.
• v(t) is always real with no complex term, V is
generally complex.
Note: Phasor analysis applies only when frequency is
constant; when it is applied to two or more sinusoid
signals only if they have the same frequency.

•However, the derivation may sometimes be very tedious.
Is there any quicker and more systematic methods to do it?
18. 18
The answer is YES!

9.3 Phasor (11)
Instead of first deriving the differential equation
and then transforming it into phasor to solve
for Vo, we can transform all the RLC
components into phasor first, then apply the
KCL laws and other theorems to set up a
phasor equation involving Vo directly.

• The impedance Z of a circuit is the ratio of the phasor
voltage V to the phasor current I, measured in ohms Ω.
where R = Re, Z is the resistance and X = Im, Z is the
reactance. Positive X is for L and negative X is for C.
• The admittance Y is the reciprocal of impedance,
measured in siemens (S).

After we know how to convert RLC components
from time to phasor domain, we can transform
a time domain circuit into a phasor/frequency
domain circuit.
Hence, we can apply the KCL laws and other
theorems to directly set up phasor equations
involving our target variable(s) for solving.
