First-Order Differential Equations Review We consider first-order differential equations of the form:
)()(1)( tftxdt
txd=+
τ (1)
where f(t) is the forcing function. In general, the differential equation has two solutions:
1. complementary (or natural or homogeneous) solution, xC(t) (when f(t) = 0), and 2. particular (or forced or non-homogeneous) solution, xP(t) (when f(t) ≠ 0).
In our problems, f(t) is often a constant, and therefore, the overall solution to the differential equation is 2

Complementary Solution The complementary solution is found by considering the homogeneous equation:
0)(1)(=+ tx

τ (3)
The complementary solution is the system’s natural response, which is τ/
1)( tC eKtx −=
This result can be verified by substituting this answer into the differential equation, Eq. (3).
Particular Solution The particular solution is found by considering the full (non-homogeneous) differential equation, that is, Eq. (1). If the forcing function is a constant, then xP(t) is a constant (K2) also, and hence
0=dtdxP . Substituting xP into the original differential equation, Eq. (1), yields:
fxxdtxd
PPP =+=+
ττ101
Reducing the above expression provides the particular solution, which is the forced response: fKxP τ== 2
Note that, alternatively, K2 could have been found using Eq. (2) while considering the final value reached by the variable of interest, and hence, in this case is also the steady-state response:

Total Solution The total solution is the sum of the complementary and particular solutions: feKxtxtx t
PCT ττ +=+= − /1)()( (4)
The coefficient term, K1, is found from the initial conditions (at t = 0).
Initial Conditions Typically, the initial conditions are determined by considering that for dc steady-state conditions:
(a) a capacitor is like an open circuit ( 0== dtdvCi C
C ), and (b) an inductor appears as a short
circuit ( 0== dtdiLv L
L ). Further, the current through an inductor and the voltage across a
capacitor cannot change instantaneously, for example, )0()0( +=− LL ii and )0()0( +=− CC vv .

Second-Order Differential Equations Review The second-order differential equations of interest are of the form:

yd=++ ωως (5)
where f(t) is the forcing function. Like the first-order case, this differential equation has two solutions: (1) complementary (or natural) solution, yC(t) when f(t) = 0, and (2) particular (or forced) solution, yP(t) when f(t) ≠ 0. In our problems, f(t) is often a constant, and therefore, the overall solution to the differential equation is typically 321

where 02 ως=a and 20ω=b . The complementary solution is the system’s natural response:

ζ Roots (s1, s2) Damping Natural Response ζ > 1 Real and unequal Overdamped Sum of two decaying exponentials ζ = 1 Real and equal Critically damped Two faster decaying exponentials ζ < 1 Complex conjugates Underdamped Exponentially damped sinusoid
Particular Solution The particular solution is found by considering the full (non-homogeneous) differential equation, Eq. (5). If the forcing function is a constant, then yP(t) is also a constant (K3), and hence

Alternatively, K3 could have been determined from Eq. (6) and the final value y(∞).
Initial Conditions Initial conditions for y and its derivative are necessary to find K1 and K2; specifically needed are y(0) and
0=tdtdy . A numerical value for
0=tdtdy is generally found by re-applying KVL or KCL at
t=0. Practically speaking, as the KVL or KCL is performed, the inductor voltage and capacitor
current, respectively, are expressed as 0=t

diL and 0=t
Cdt
dvC . The numerical value of 0=tdt
dy
is then equated to an analytical derivative of y(t) determined from Eq. (6). The initial conditions for y(0) are found in the same manner as described for first-order differential equations.
