<strong>The</strong> general solution is then the real part of the inverse Fourier trans<strong>for</strong>m:<br />

In the specific case we have considered so far of a single Fourier component of frequency<br />

ω, i.e. ˜ Vin = Vie ıωt ,thenF{ ˜ Vin(t)} = √ 2πδ(ω − ω ′ ), and we recover our previous result <strong>for</strong><br />

the transfer function:<br />

˜T = ˜ V/ ˜ 1<br />

For an arbitrary functional <strong>for</strong>m <strong>for</strong> Vin(t), one could use Eqns. 12 and 13. Note that<br />

one would go through the same steps if Vin(t) werewrittenasaFourierseriesratherthan<br />

a Fourier integral. Note also that the procedure carried out to give Eqn. 11 is <strong>for</strong>mally<br />

equivalent to our use of the complex impedances: In both cases the differential equation is<br />

converted to an algebraic equation.<br />

3.6 Phase Shift<br />

We now need to discuss finding the phase φ of our solution. To do this, we proceed as previously,<br />

<strong>for</strong> example like the high-pass filter, but this time we preserve the phase in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

by not taking the modulus of ˜ Vout. <strong>The</strong> input to a circuit has the <strong>for</strong>m ˜ Vin = Vine ı(ωt+φ1) ,<br />

and the output ˜ Vout = Voute ı(ωt+φ2) . We are usually only interested in the phase difference<br />

φ2 − φ1 between input and output, so, <strong>for</strong> convenience, we can choose φ1 =0andsetthe<br />

phase shift to be φ2 ≡ φ. Physically, we must choose the real or imaginary part of these<br />

expressions. Conventionally, the real part is used. So we have:<br />

Vin(t) =ℜ( ˜ Vin) =Vin(ω)cos(ωt)<br />

and<br />

Vout(t) =ℜ( ˜ Vout) =Vout(ω)cos(ωt + φ)<br />

Let’s return to our example of the high-pass filter to see how to calculate the phase shift.<br />

We rewrite the expression from Section 3.3 and then multiply numerator and denominator<br />

by the complex conjugate of the denominator:<br />

˜Vout = ˜ �<br />

By recalling the general <strong>for</strong>m a + ıb = √ a 2 + b 2 e ıφ ,whereφ=tan −1 (b/a), we can write<br />

1+ı/(ωRC) =<br />

allowing us to read off the phase shift:<br />
