Why we always use Z transform to analyze/represent switched-capacitor related circuit?

Hi All,

Why we always use Z transform to analyze/represent switched-capacitor
related circuit?

For easy calculation?

Best regards,
Boki.

Yes, because a delay can be represented by z^{-1}, and discrete time
signals can easily be written as a sum of shifted (delayed) and scaled
unit pulses.

Not always. You can use classic linear analysis (integrators, summers,
gain elements) and get pretty close in a lot of cases. You can, for
instance, look up a trusty old analog state-variable filter design and
flip it directly into an MF10.

Duh, because Z transforms apply specifically to descrete time systems????

C'mon, Boki got it right, cut him some slack. Z is just a shorthand for
exp(j2*pi*f*tau), where tau is the sampling interval-- with that change
of variable, the Z transform is just a Fourier or two-sided Laplace
transform, which is where it came from in the first place. (Before you
jump on me for the sign of j, remember that we physicists use the
opposite Fourier transform sign convention to you EEs. That's also a
good fig leaf for not bothering to check which it is.)

Cheers,

Yeah, but then you folks use "i" instead of "j" just to further obfuscate
matters ;=}}

Oh, no. Mathematics has had the "i" as squareroot(-1) for
ages. The electric community would just get spinning heads
when the "i" was used for current AND the squareroot(-1)
in the same formula.

Agreed. However, us EEs are taught that the *reason* for using the short
hand in the first place is in order to analyse/design descrete time
systems.

I like to discuss with you, can I ? :-D

Have you had a course on Z-transforms or sampled control systems?
