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:
“The simple opposition between the people and big business has disappeared because the people themselves have become so deeply involved in big business.”
—Walter Lippmann (18891974)
“In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
“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)
“He is the old hunting dog of the sea
who in the morning will rise from it
and be undrowned
and they will take his perfect green body
and paint it red.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“You all talk like somebody else made these laws and Pharaoh dont know nothing about em. He makes em his own self and hes glad when we come tell him they hurt. why, thats a whole lot of pleasure to him, to be making up laws all the time and to have a crowd like us around handy to pass all his mean ones on. Why, thats a whole everything under the sun! Next thing you know hell be saying cats cant have kittens.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (18911960)
