resonant circuit rise time

resonant circuit rise time

resonant circuit rise time

(OP)
I have a resonant circuit that is fed by a sine wave at
its resonant frequency. The sine wave has a very short
duty cycle 0.1%.  For some reason my circuit on recieving
this signal increases in amplitue for only a small part of
the duration of the sine wave and then levels off. How
can I calculate given the Q of the resonator how long it
will take for a signal at resonance to reach maximum value??

thanks

Try
1.6*Q/f0

Thanks thats just what I was looking for.

RE: resonant circuit rise time

except the duty cycle is ambiguous: either the sine wave
is clipped so only their peak reaches the tank circuit or
bursts of sine -- in this case frequency,R,L,C and time
on/off are needed too, to determine the amplitude
