OP\(1V + 2V + 3V) / (0.0001 + 0.0002 + 0.0003) = 10000[/quote said:NO!
These are trapezoids.
The area of a trapezoid is: 1/2 (b1+b2)*h
For a v(t) = f(t), my function and w = 0.0001
we have:
(1/2) *( [0+1]*w + [1+2] * w + (2+3) * w ..... )
(1/2) * (w +3w + 6w)
(1/2) * 10w = 5w
w=0.0001 s so area under curve = 5*0.0001 = 0.0005 for those slices.
You would divide by the total time over one cycle to get the RMS value of V.
My waveform was a very steep triangle wave. Let's hope I did it right.
