  2. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    The following formulae use it, assuming a constant voltage applied across the capacitor and resistor in series, to determine the voltage across the capacitor against time: Charging toward applied voltage (initially zero voltage across capacitor, constant V 0 across resistor and capacitor together) V 0 : V ( t ) = V 0 ( 1 − e − t / τ ...

  3. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_time_constant...

    The open-circuit time constant (OCT) method is an approximate analysis technique used in electronic circuit design to determine the corner frequency of complex circuits. It is a special case of zero-value time constant (ZVT) method technique when reactive elements consist of only capacitors.

  4. RC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_circuit

    These equations show that a series RC circuit has a time constant, usually denoted τ = RC being the time it takes the voltage across the component to either rise (across the capacitor) or fall (across the resistor) to within ⁠ 1 / e ⁠ of its final value. That is, τ is the time it takes V C to reach V(1 − ⁠ 1 / e ⁠) and V R to reach ...

  5. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    This means that the time constant is the time elapsed after 63% of V max has been reached Setting for t = for the fall sets V(t) equal to 0.37V max, meaning that the time constant is the time elapsed after it has fallen to 37% of V max. The larger a time constant is, the slower the rise or fall of the potential of a neuron.

  6. General time- and transfer constant analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_time-_and_transfer...

    The general time- and transfer-constants (TTC) analysis [1] is the generalized version of the Cochran-Grabel (CG) method, [2] which itself is the generalized version of zero-value time-constants (ZVT), which in turn is the generalization of the open-circuit time constant method (OCT). [3]

  7. RL circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RL_circuit

    These equations show that a series RL circuit has a time constant, usually denoted τ = ⁠ L / R ⁠ being the time it takes the voltage across the component to either fall (across the inductor) or rise (across the resistor) to within ⁠ 1 / e ⁠ of its final value. That is, τ is the time it takes V L to reach V(⁠ 1 / e ⁠) and V R to ...

  8. Relaxation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(physics)

    The constant = is called the relaxation time or RC time constant of the circuit. A nonlinear oscillator circuit which generates a repeating waveform by the repetitive discharge of a capacitor through a resistance is called a relaxation oscillator.

  9. Transfer constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_constant

    The transfer constants are calculated under similar zero- and infinite-value conditions of reactive elements used in the Cochran-Grabel (CG) method [2] to calculate time constants, but calculating the low-frequency transfer functions from a defined input source to the output terminal, instead of the resistance seen by the reactive elements.
