  In this work the non-linear and chaotic behaviour for the RLD circuit is
analysed, which is modelled by state space and numerically simulated
considering the diode model an association between nonlinear resistances and
capacitances. It has been possible to characterize the dynamics of the circuit
through period doubles and chaotic behaviour. The Lyapunov exponent is
calculated to show the chaotic behaviour of this circuit. Simulated results are
in good agreement with experimental data.
