  2. Step Response The concept of the bounce diagram is useful to find a step response on a terminated lossless line: t = 0 Lossless line R R L + - g ( ) t Z gv 0 0V V = z L z = 0 u(t) = unit step function V 0 Note: ( ) t gv ( ) ( ) The bounce diagram is useful if the source is a step function or a rectangular pulse (discussed later in these notes). If the source is something else, it is better to use the general theory presented in Notes 7. = gv t V u t 0 t Generator voltage 2

  3. Step Response (cont.) The voltage wave is shown approaching the load: = t = = t t 0 t t dc 2 1 V+ t = 0 R R L + - g ( ) t Z gv 0 1 V V = 0 = z L z = 0 Z + + = 0 V V (from voltage divider) 0 R Z 0 g 3
