Thank you for everyone for taking the time to explain the calculation. Previously I had looked at one electronics book, the charge time was = written as t =3D RC (charge constant). Also, there were the formulas given by = some of you. However, untill now it wasn't clear to me. On a slightly different topic: The capacitor charge time on my circuit is about 200us. When I heat the circuit up to about 60=B0C (140=B0F), the time decreases to 32us. I use different resistors; however, the time decrease seems to be constant. = This is probably because of the capacitor, it is effected by the heat too = much. I have heated up the resistors separately to the same heat, that did not have any effect on the charging time. Is there a capacitor that is not effected from temprature changes? I am using 100nF capacitor. Best regards, Omer YALHI oyalhi@teksan.com.tr http://www.teksan.com.tr -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
