Hi,
I am learning Filter circuit and there is problem on the time to charge capacitor fully.
As the formula:
Vc = V(1 - e-t/RC)
the time is only depend on RC time constant but in a website I read they said that the time is depend on 2 things:
- time constant
-the current throught the capacitor
Would you tell me why it is depended on the current throught the capacitor?
Thanks in advance
