Abstract :
The authors study a general RLC circuit with ideal diodes and periodic sources by computing the Jacobian of the Poincare´ map. These circuits are nonlinear but have special structure allowing the Jacobian to be reduced to a simple and useful expression. The Jacobian computation is illustrated with a diode bridge rectifier circuit
