If a periodic pulse waveform is applied to an RC differentiating circuit, which two conditions are possible?

tw ≥ 5Τ or tw > 5Τ
tw = 5Τ or tw > 5Τ
tw ≤ 5Τ or tw < 5Τ
tw ≥ 5Τ or tw < 5Τ

Correct Answer: tw ≥ 5Τ or tw < 5Τ

The output voltage of an RC integrator will eventually equal the voltage of a single input pulse if the input pulse width is less than 5 time constants.
A differentiator circuit can be used to convert a pulse input to a nearly constant dc output.
During the steady-state condition of a differentiator, the average output voltage is zero volts.
The voltage across a capacitor in an RC integrator circuit cannot change exponentially; it can change only instantaneously.
The output voltage of a differentiator goes negative on the falling edge of the input pulse.
The output of a differentiator could be considered a spike when the input pulse width is much longer than 5 time constants.
The steady-state condition of an integrator is reached after 5 time constants regardless of the number of input pulses that occur in that amount of time.
