First Order System Settling Time (2%) Calculator











How This Is Calculated


$$ T_s = \frac{4}{\tau} $$
where:

Ts   =   Settling time   (s)

τ   =   Time Constant  


Assumptions


  • The system is a linear time-invarient system.
  • The system is a first-order control system.
  • The input is a step input.
  • The material is pure/ideal.
