| May 10 at 3:49 | comment | added | JkingNH | My read of the OP, is that the question is about the rise time, "I apply 5 volts (using power supply) in parallel to my capacitor and use the scope in parallel as well." Lab power supply rise times can certainly be in the 10's of ms range. Rise times of this magnitude will certainly violate the assumptions used for a 'simple' RC time constant equation I asked the OP to add waveforms to let all see if those assumptions are fulfilled or not. | |
