MUX36S08: On capacitance influence on Settling behavior

Part Number: MUX36S08

Dear colleague,

Now we are promoting TI precision lab MUX video to customers.

But in Con as below:

What does K mean? In video, it means that "where K is the number of time constants required to settle an N bit accurate system"

Can you give us a K example? This is very confusing.

In the video, give an example, but I don't see it is related to K.

Thanks a lot!

  • Hi Rock Su,

    Thank you for sharing the TI precision lab Mux videos with the customers and sharing the feedback with us.

     " K "is the number of time constants required to settle an N bit accurate system". It is referring to computing how many of the time constant "K" must pass before the system will settle to within say 1%, 0.1%, 0.01% and 0.001% of its final.

    It is calculated using the formula:  # of time constants= −ln (% error/100)

    See below thread as an example:

    Thanks
