ElCaron:
Shouldn't this be added orthogonally?
Hi,
Yes, but with these circuits sometimes you can estimate by just calculating the reactance. For this example calculating it by simply adding the reactance leads to about 43ma rms while when i did it 'right' i got 45ma rms. So not too much different in this case. You can double check those numbers though.
I usually like to do these non linear circuits in the time domain anyway though, using either a simulation or doing more extensive time domain calculations. I usually shoot for the average current in the output load.
