  2. 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 ...

  3. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    Time constant. In physics and engineering, the time constant, usually denoted by the Greek letter τ (tau), is the parameter characterizing the response to a step input of a first-order, linear time-invariant (LTI) system. [1][note 1] The time constant is the main characteristic unit of a first-order LTI system. It gives speed of the response.

  4. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    RC time constant. The RC time constant, denoted τ (lowercase tau), the time constant (in seconds) of a resistor–capacitor circuit (RC circuit), is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads): It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge ...

  5. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

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

    An increase in this variable means the higher pole is further above the corner frequency. The y-axis is the ratio of the OCTC (open-circuit time constant) estimate to the true time constant. For the lowest pole use curve T_1; this curve refers to the corner frequency; and for the higher pole use curve T_2. The worst agreement is for τ 1 = τ 2.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    the constant is the permeability of free space, commonly called , divided by ; in the absence of magnetically reactive insulation the value 200 is exact when using the classical definition of μ 0 = 4π × 10 −7 H/m, and correct to 7 decimal places when using the 2019-redefined SI value of μ 0 = 1.256 637 062 12 (19) × 10 −6 H/m.

  7. Leakage inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leakage_inductance

    Fig. 1 L P σ and L S σ are primary and secondary leakage inductances expressed in terms of inductive coupling coefficient under open-circuited conditions.. The magnetic circuit's flux that does not interlink both windings is the leakage flux corresponding to primary leakage inductance L P σ and secondary leakage inductance L S σ.

  8. 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] While the other methods mentioned provide varying terms ...

  9. Low-pass filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter

    A low-pass filter is a filter that passes signals with a frequency lower than a selected cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency. The exact frequency response of the filter depends on the filter design. The filter is sometimes called a high-cut filter, or treble-cut filter in audio applications.
