The RC time constant, also called tau, the time constant (in seconds) of an RC circuit, is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads), i.e. τ=RC It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.
NAND flash depletion cell structure
InactiveUS20060044872A1Scale upIncrease supplyRead-only memoriesDigital storageCapacitanceRC time constant
NAND architecture Flash memory strings, memory arrays, and memory devices are described that utilize depletion mode floating gate memory cells. Depletion mode floating gate memory cells allow for increased cell current through lower channel rdS resistance and decreased “narrow width” effect, allowing for increased scaling of NAND memory cell strings. In addition, the required voltages for reading and programming operations are reduced, allowing the use of more efficient, lower voltage charge pumps and a reduction circuit element feature sizes and layouts. Cell inhibit of unselected cells is also increased, reducing the likelihood of cell disturb in the memory array. Operation speed is improved by increasing read current of the selected NAND string and by increasing the ability to overcome the RC time constants of circuit lines and capacitances through lowered voltage swings and increased current supplies.

Current sensing in multiple coupled inductors by time constant matching to leakage inductance
InactiveUS7233132B1Small and negligible leakage inductanceImprove accuracyDc-dc conversionElectric variable regulationRC time constantEngineering
Voltage regulators often have coupled output inductors because coupled output inductors provide improvements in cost and efficiency. Coupled inductors are often used in multi-phase voltage regulators. Feedback control of voltage regulators often requires accurate and responsive sensing of output current. Provided is a technique for accurately sensing the magnitude of output current in coupled inductors. An RC circuit (comprising a resistor and capacitor in series) is connected in parallel with the coupled inductor. The inductor has a leakage inductance Lk and a DC (ohmic) resistance of DCR. The resistor and capacitor are selected such that an RC time constant is equal to an L / R time constant of Lk / DCR. With the matching time constants, a sum of voltages on the capacitors is accurately proportional to a sum of currents flowing in the output inductors. Also provided is a technique for sensing current when an uncoupled center tap inductor is present.

Calibration of integrated circuit time constants
InactiveUS6842710B1Computing operations for integral formationComputing operations for integration/differentiationRC time constantVoltage reference
A method and system for calibrating a time constant within an integrated circuit. A voltage storage element is charged, and the time required to achieve a reference voltage on the storage element is measured. The measured time is compared to a desired time. It necessary, an adjustable impedance is modified to change the charging time, and the cycle may be repeated until the charging time matches the desired time. In this novel manner, an actual RC time constant, as rendered in a particular integrated circuit, is measured and potentially adjusted to match a desired time constant. Advantageously, configuration information of the adjustable impedance may be communicated to other circuitry within the integrated circuit to enable such circuitry to implement the same RC time constant in analog signal processing. Consequently, embodiments of the present invention overcome incidences of wide tolerance in passive components implemented in integrated circuits. Beneficially, no external test equipment is required.

Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate determining coil temperature in a proximity sensor, such as an extended range inductive proximity sensor. Voltage measurements can be taken before, and during, damped oscillatory decay of a voltage in a resonant circuit in the proximity sensor to determine a value, γ, associated with an inductive time constant for the resonant circuit. The gamma value comprises information related to both inductance and resistance in the sensor coil, and can be employed to determine coil temperature. Derivation of the gamma value, and thus of coil temperature, can utilize a current pulse of a duration of approximately one RC time constant of the resonant circuit, thus mitigating current consumption by the proximity sensor during temperature assessment.

Noise immune rc trigger for ESD protection

An ESD protection circuit incorporates an ESD shunt device triggered by an ESD trigger network. In non-powered situations, a first RC time constant in the ESD trigger network, corresponds with the time range of the onset an ESD event and controls application of the ESD shunt device in response to the ESD event. A second RC time constant in a shunt trigger network is selected to be longer than the first RC time constant and holds-off triggering of a shunt device during ESD shunt protection. When activated during powered-on operation, the shunt device shunts a resistive element in the ESD trigger network forming a third time constant. The shunt device guards against false triggering during noise on a power rail by maintaining the third time constant in the ESD trigger network. The third time constant ensures that power rail voltage buildup due to noise dissipates before a false trigger develops.

An arrangement for protecting an element from electro-static discharge. A switch is provided to inhibit the flow of energy through the element in response to the control signal. In the illustrative embodiment, the switch is a transistor switch. A resistor is disposed between an input terminal of the transistor and the positive supply to keep the transistor on during normal operation. A capacitor is disposed between the input terminal of the transistor and ground to prevent the input voltage of the transistor from fast changing.

Dielectric coupled CO2 slab laser
InactiveUS20060029116A1Increase input powerActive medium materialGas laser constructional detailsCapacitanceRC time constant
A slab laser includes two elongated electrodes arranged spaced apart and face-to-face. Either one or two slabs of a solid dielectric material extend along the length of the electrodes between the electrodes. A discharge gap is formed either between one of the electrodes and one dielectric slab, or between two dielectric slabs. The discharge gap is filled with lasing gas. A pair of mirrors is configured and arranged to define a laser resonator extending through the gap. An RF potential is applied across the electrodes creating a gas discharge in the gap, and causing laser radiation to circulate in the resonator. Inserting dielectric material between the electrodes increases the resistance-capacitance (RC) time constant of the discharge structure compared with the RC time constant in the absence of dielectric material. This hinders the formation of arcs in the discharge, which enables the laser to operate with higher excitation power, higher lasing gas pressure, and higher output power than would be possible without the dielectric inserts.

This invention is concerned with the control of implanting ions into a substrate, such as doping semiconductor wafers. The ion beam is measured to ensure waters are implanted with the correct, uniform ion dose. The incident ion beam comprises ions and neutrals, yet detectors measure only ions. The ions / neutrals ratio varies with the ion implanter's chamber pressure that in turn is known to rise and fall when the ion beam is on and off the wafer respectively, according to a characteristic time constant. This invention provides methods of correcting measured ionic currents to account for neutrals using the time constant. Initially an assumed time constant is used that is later improved by measuring the ionic current after a delay sufficient to allow the chamber pressure to recover to its base value. The time constant may also be improved by removing any quadratic variation in already determined true beam current values.
