The difference in time it takes the three different circuit outputs to decay can be used to
determine a resistance value if the capacitance value stays the same. Likewise, if the
resistance is fixed but the capacitance varies, the capacitance can be determined by
measuring the time between the step input and the threshold voltage.
A PBASIC command called
the amount of time it took the RC output to decay from 5 volts to 1.4 volts, which is the
value of
The value of t
from 5 volts to 1.4 volts.
It turns out that the amount of time it takes for the voltage to decay is directly
proportional to R multiplied by C. R ´ C is called the RC time constant, and it is often
represented by the Greek letter tau.
At the instant the voltage at P15 reaches 1.4 volts, the input value at pin P15 goes from 1
to 0, and the BASIC Stamp stops counting 2 us intervals.
