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.
A similar non-standard notation using the unit symbol instead of a decimal separator is sometimes used to indicate voltages (i.e. 0V8 for 0.8 V, 1V8 for 1.8 V, 3V3 for 3.3 V or 5V0 for 5.0 V [24] [25] [26]) in contexts where a decimal separator would be inappropriate (e.g. in signal or pin names, in file names, or in labels or subscripts).
The rate of change is a fractional 1 − 1 / e per τ. Thus, in going from t = Nτ to t = (N + 1)τ, the voltage will have moved about 63.2% of the way from its level at t = Nτ toward its final value. So the capacitor will be charged to about 63.2% after τ, and essentially fully charged (99.3%) after about 5τ.
[1] [2] [3] For example, if a 1 m 3 solid cube of material has sheet contacts on two opposite faces, and the resistance between these contacts is 1 Ω, then the resistivity of the material is 1 Ω⋅m. Electrical conductivity (or specific conductance) is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity. It represents a material's ability to conduct ...
The equivalent series resistance (ESR) is the amount of internal series resistance one would add to a perfect capacitor to model this. Some types of capacitors , primarily tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors , as well as some film capacitors have a specified rating value for maximum ripple current.
The farad (symbol: F) is the unit of electrical capacitance, the ability of a body to store an electrical charge, in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 1 coulomb per volt (C/V). [1] It is named after the English physicist Michael Faraday (1791–1867). In SI base units 1 F = 1 kg −1 ⋅m −2 ⋅s 4 ⋅A 2.

The SI unit of capacitance is the farad (symbol: F), named after the English physicist Michael Faraday. [2] A 1 farad capacitor, when charged with 1 coulomb of electrical charge, has a potential difference of 1 volt between its plates. [3] The reciprocal of capacitance is called elastance.
