Objective: Determine the charging and discharging times
The discharge curve of a capacitor is to be derived by measuring the times taken for certain voltages to be reached to obtain sample points. The charging curve is to be measured in the same way. The measurements will then be used to determine data regarding the resistors and capacitors being used.
Additionally required: Basic equipment UE3050105-230 or UE3050105-115.
