A resistor\u2013capacitor circuit (RC circuit), or RC filter or RC network, is an electric circuit composed of resistors and capacitors. It may be driven by a voltage or current source and these will produce different responses.

In an RC circuit, the product of the resistance in ohms and the capacitance in farads is called the time constant, T = RC. A capacitor will charge or discharge to 63.2 % of its final value in 1 T. It takes about 5 T to charge to the source voltage.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

example:
R = 5000\u03a9
C = 10000\u00b5F or 0.01F<\/p>

5000\u03a9 x 10000\u00b5F = 5000\u03a9 x 0.01F = 50 seconds to charge to 63.2%.\u00a0 5T (full charge) = 5 * 50 seconds or 250 seconds.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
