Propagation delay of an RC‐circuit with a ramp input: An analytical very accurate and simple model

Abstract

AbstractIn this letter, one of the models reported in Mita et al. (IEEE Trans. Circuits Syst.—II: Express Briefs 2007; 54(1):66–70) for estimating the propagation delay of an RC‐chain with a linear input is revised and improved. The extended model, while maintaining the same simplicity, has a reduced error which is six times lower than the original model, being always as low as 1%. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
