Hi,
Could someone please explain to me in simply terms, what step response is? struggling to get my head around it.

Brilliant, thank you very much Max!The time it takes for a device from off to on, or 0 to 1, depends what the context is.

In general, the step response of a system is the time domain response of that system to an abrupt change in its input from one value to some other value. More here.Could someone please explain to me in simply terms, what step response is? struggling to get my head around it.
I rather think, this is the rise time of a system.The time it takes for a device from off to on, or 0 to 1, depends what the context is.

The step respose is the timely response of a system output to a signal step at the input.
Example: The step response of a simple RC-lowpass is an exponential function-
Isn't that the same thing??I rather think, this is the rise time of a system.
Rise time is a single figure of merit, whereas the step response encompasses the entire behavior of a system to a step input. When I hear the words "step response", I think of a time-domain graph of the output, which will show the rise time as well as the other figures of merit (overshoot, ripple, etc.).Isn't that the same thing??

The rise time is one single number (time in seconds) which is derived from the step response which is a function of time.Isn't that the same thing??
