How to compute R/C time constant in Python using UliEngineering

You can easily compute the R/C time constant of a resistor-capacitor network using the UliEngineering Python library:

rc_time_constant.py
from UliEngineering.Electronics.Capacitors import *
from UliEngineering.EngineerIO import *

# Compute the time constant of a 10k resistor and a 100uF capacitor
tau = capacitor_rc_time_constant(
    capacitance="100uF", resistance="10kΩ"
)

# Auto-format & print the result
print(f"Time constant: {format_value(tau, 's')}")

Example output

rc_time_constant_output.txt
Time constant: 1000 ms
