Simple Examples of Calculation of Rise Time
The aim of this section is the calculation of rise time of step response for some simple systems: all notations and assumptions required for the following analysis are listed here.
- is the rise time of the analyzed system, measured in seconds.
- is the low frequency cutoff (-3 dB point) of the analyzed system, measured in hertz.
- is high frequency cutoff (-3 dB point) of the analyzed system, measured in hertz.
- is the impulse response of the analyzed system in the time domain.
- is the frequency response of the analyzed system in the frequency domain.
- The bandwidth is defined as
- and since the low frequency cutoff is usually several decades lower than the high frequency cutoff ,
- All systems analyzed here have a frequency response which extends to 0 (low-pass systems), thus
- exactly.
- All systems analyzed are thought as electrical networks and all the signals are thought as voltages for the sake of simplicity: the input is a step function of volts.

Famous quotes containing the words simple, examples, calculation, rise and/or time:
“Cannot a plain man live and think no harm,
But that his simple truth must be abused
With silken, sly, insinuating Jacks?”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
—Alexander Pope (16881744)
“To my thinking boomed the Professor, begging the question as usual, the greatest triumph of the human mind was the calculation of Neptune from the observed vagaries of the orbit of Uranus.
And yours, said the P.B.”
—Samuel Beckett (19061989)
“I dont say tis impossible for an impudent man not to rise in the world, but a moderate merit with a large share of impudence is more probable to be advanced than the greatest qualifications without it.”
—Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (16891762)
“I believe that all the survivors are mad. One time or another their madness will explode. You cannot absorb that much madness and not be influenced by it. That is why the children of survivors are so tragic. I see them in school. They dont know how to handle their parents. They see that their parents are traumatized: they scream and dont react normally.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
