  2. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.

  3. Contamination delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contamination_delay

    Here, the contamination delay is the amount of time needed for a change in the flip-flop clock input to result in the initial change at the flip-flop output (Q). If there is insufficient delay from the output of the first flip-flop to the input of the second, the input may change before the hold time has passed. Because the second flip-flop is ...

  4. Programma 101 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programma_101

    Olivetti P101 magnetic card. One of the direct results of the Programma 101 team focus on human-centered objectives was the invention of a removable magnetic card to store programmed calculation, a revolutionary item for that time, allowing anyone to just insert it and execute any program in a few seconds.

  5. Successive-approximation ADC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Successive-approximation_ADC

    One of the most common SAR ADC implementations uses a charge-scaling DAC consisting of an array of individually-switched capacitors sized in powers of two and an additional duplicate of the smallest capacitor, for a total of N+1 capacitors for N bits. Thus if the largest capacitance is C, then the array's total capacitance is 2C. The switched ...

  6. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    In the short-time limit, if the capacitor starts with a certain voltage V, since the voltage drop on the capacitor is known at this instant, we can replace it with an ideal voltage source of voltage V. Specifically, if V=0 (capacitor is uncharged), the short-time equivalence of a capacitor is a short circuit.

  7. Dielectric absorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_absorption

    Dielectric absorption is the name given to the effect by which a capacitor, that has been charged for a long time, discharges only incompletely when briefly discharged.. Although an ideal capacitor would remain at zero volts after being discharged, real capacitors will develop a small voltage from time-delayed dipole discharging, [1] a phenomenon that is also called dielectric relaxation ...

  8. Dynamic random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_random-access_memory

    The time required to discharge a capacitor thus depends on what logic value is stored in the capacitor. A capacitor containing logic one begins to discharge when the voltage at the access transistor's gate terminal is above V CCP. If the capacitor contains a logic zero, it begins to discharge when the gate terminal voltage is above V TH. [41]

  9. Equivalent series resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_resistance

    Capacitors and inductors as used in electric circuits are not ideal components with only capacitance or inductance.However, they can be treated, to a very good degree of approximation, as being ideal capacitors and inductors in series with a resistance; this resistance is defined as the equivalent series resistance (ESR) [1].
