  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. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

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

    The linear term in jω in this transfer function can be derived by the following method, which is an application of the open-circuit time constant method to this example. Set the signal source to zero. Select capacitor C 2, replace it by a test voltage V X, and replace C 1 by an open circuit.

  4. RC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_circuit

    The impulse response of a series RC circuit. The impulse response for each voltage is the inverse Laplace transform of the corresponding transfer function. It represents the response of the circuit to an input voltage consisting of an impulse or Dirac delta function. The impulse response for the capacitor voltage is

  5. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    The tuning application, for instance, is an example of band-pass filtering. The RLC filter is described as a second-order circuit, meaning that any voltage or current in the circuit can be described by a second-order differential equation in circuit analysis. The three circuit elements, R, L and C, can be combined in a number of different ...

  6. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law states that the electric current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, [1] one arrives at the three mathematical equations used to describe this relationship: [2]

  7. Single-ended primary-inductor converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_primary...

    ] Because capacitor C1 blocks direct current (DC), the average current through it (I C1) is zero, making inductor L2 the only source of DC load current. Therefore, the average current through inductor L2 (I L2) is the same as the average load current and hence independent of the input voltage. Looking at average voltages, the following can be ...

  8. Half time (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    The voltage (v) on the capacitor (C) changes with time as the capacitor is charged or discharged via the resistor (R) In electronics, when a capacitor is charged or discharged via a resistor, the voltage on the capacitor follows the above formula, with the half time approximately equal to 0.69 times the time constant, which is equal to the product of the resistance and the capacitance.

  9. Capacitance multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_multiplier

    Here, the capacitance of capacitor C1 is multiplied by the ratio of resistances: C = C1 * R1 / R2 at the Vi node. [1] More advanced capacitance multiplier. The synthesized capacitance also brings a series resistance approximately equal to R2, and a leakage current appears across the capacitance because of the input offsets of OP.
