Abstract
A computer-implemented method for deriving resistance, inductance, and capacitance (RLC) values of an RLC equivalent circuit model associated with a fireset. The method may comprise steps of: acquiring and storing waveform data of a current discharge pulse capable of executing a fireset; plotting a waveform based on the waveform data; adjusting the plotted waveform by time-shifting and scaling the plotted waveform based on user input values; determining a time offset measurement and initial frequency measurement from the time-shifting and scaling steps, respectively; generating a plurality of model data based on the time offset measurement, initial frequency measurement, and user input values; determining a plurality of percentage error values corresponding to the model data; determining an ideal waveform by selecting a least of the percentage error values and associated model data; deriving ideal RLC values from the ideal waveform and associated model data; and displaying the ideal waveform and plotted waveform.
