How to Evaluate Rise Time?

Rise Time evaluator uses Rise Time = 2*Edge Rate-Fall Time to evaluate the Rise Time, Rise time refers to the time it takes for the output voltage of a digital signal to transition from a low logic level (logic '0') to a high logic level (logic '1') during a rising transition. It is a critical parameter that impacts the speed, performance, and signal integrity of CMOS digital circuits. Rise Time is denoted by tr symbol.

How to evaluate Rise Time using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Rise Time, enter Edge Rate (te) & Fall Time (tf) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Rise Time

What is the formula to find Rise Time?
The formula of Rise Time is expressed as Rise Time = 2*Edge Rate-Fall Time. Here is an example- 5.5E+9 = 2*6E-09-9.2E-09.
How to calculate Rise Time?
With Edge Rate (te) & Fall Time (tf) we can find Rise Time using the formula - Rise Time = 2*Edge Rate-Fall Time.
Can the Rise Time be negative?
No, the Rise Time, measured in Time cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Rise Time?
Rise Time is usually measured using the Nanosecond[ns] for Time. Second[ns], Millisecond[ns], Microsecond[ns] are the few other units in which Rise Time can be measured.
