TI-55 III Programs Part II: Impedance of a Series RLC Circuit, Quadratic Equation, Error Function

On to Part II!



TI-55 III:  Impedance of Series RLC Circuit

The impedance of a series RLC circuit in Ω (ohms) is:

Z = √(R^2 + (2*π*f*L – 1/(2*π*f*C))^2)

Where:
R = resistance of the resistor in ohms (Ω)
L = inductance of the inductor in Henrys (H)
C = capacitance of the capacitor in Farads (F)
f = resonance frequency in Hertz (Hz)
XL = 2*π*f*L
XC = 1/(2*π*f*C)

Input:  f [RST] [R/S], L [R/S], C [R/S], R [R/S]
Result:  Z

Test:
f = 60 Hz
L = 0.25 H
C = 16 * 10^-6 F
R = 150 Ω

Result:  166.18600 Ω

TI-55 III: Quadratic Equation

This program find the real roots of the equation:
X^2 + B*X + C = 0

Where:
D = B^2 – 4*C
If D ≥ 0, then continue the program since it will find the real roots.  Otherwise, stop since the roots are complex and is beyond the scope of this program.  The two roots are:
X1 = (-B + √D)/2
X2 = (-B - √D)/2

TI-55 III: Gaussian Error Function

The error function is defined as:
erf(x) = ∫( 2*e^(-t^2)/√π dt, from t = 0 to t = x)

This program illustrates the integration function [ ∫ dx ] on the TI-55 III.

Program:
Prepare by pressing [2nd] [LRN] (Part) 3.  Integration needs a minimum of 3 memory registers.  That means, f(x) can take a maximum of 40 steps.
