Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm following along an example problem in Sedra/Smith and I seem to have gotten stuck. I can see that v_0 = v_i + v_c. For the pictured circuit and input signal I think that v_c = -4V because it seems to me that current will only flow during the 4 volt pulse and since v_c is defined as it is, v_c = -4V. Now, to get v_0 I would think that I would just say v_0 = -4 V + -6 V = -10 V. Unfortunately, the book says the answer is -5 volts. Does anyone see what I've done wrong?
Even if I draw it I would think that all of the >0 voltage would be shifted downward so that the most negative number is -10V. Doesn't this circuit ideally shift everything to a negative voltage?
