Rise Time - Factors Affecting Rise Time

Factors Affecting Rise Time

Rise time values in a resistive circuit are primarily due to stray capacitance and inductance in the circuit. Because every circuit has not only resistance, but also capacitance and inductance, a delay in voltage and/or current at the load is apparent until the steady state is reached. In a pure RC circuit, the output risetime (10% to 90%), as shown above, is approximately equal to .

Famous quotes containing the words factors, affecting, rise and/or time:

    “The goal of every culture is to decay through over-civilization; the factors of decadence,—luxury, scepticism, weariness and superstition,—are constant. The civilization of one epoch becomes the manure of the next.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Children must eventually train their own children, and any impoverishment of their impulse life, for the sake of avoiding friction, must be considered a possible liability affecting more than one lifetime”
    —Erik H. Erikson (20th century)

    “Thou gav’st me life, but mortal; for that one
    Favour I’ll make full satisfaction:
    For my life mortal, rise from out thy hearse,
    And take a life immortal from my verse.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    “Lars Jorgensen: It’s this country killed my boy. Yes, by golly, I tell you Ethan—
    Mrs. Jorgensen: Now Lars. It just so happens we be Texicans. A Texican is nothing but a human man way out on a limb, this year, and next, maybe for a hundred more. But I don’t think it’ll be forever. Someday this country’s going to be a fine good place to be. Maybe it needs our bones in the ground before that time can come.”
    —Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
