The circuit shown in the figure is used to charge the capacitor C alternately from two current sources as indicated. The switches S1 and S2 are mechanically coupled and connected as follows.
For 2nT ≤ t < (2n + 1)T, (n = 0, 1, 2 . . .) S1 to P1 and S2 to P2.
For (2n + 1)T ≤ t < (2n + 2)T, (n = 0, 1, 2 . . .) S1 to Q1 and S2 to Q2.
Assume that the capacitor has zero initial charge. Give that u(t) is a unit step function, the voltage VC(t) across the capacitor is given by
A. $$\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {{{\left( { - 1} \right)}^n}tu\left( {t - nT} \right)} $$
B. $$u\left( t \right) + 2\sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {{{\left( { - 1} \right)}^n}\left( {t - nT} \right)u\left( {t - nT} \right)} $$
C. $$tu\left( t \right) + 2\sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {{{\left( { - 1} \right)}^n}\left( {t - nT} \right)u\left( {t - nT} \right)} $$
D. $$\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\left[ {0.5 - {e^{ - \left( {t - 2nT} \right)}} + 0.5{e^{ - \left( {t - 2n - T} \right)}}} \right]} $$
