Description

Given a step change \(\Delta\), calculate the number of time constants \(n_\tau\) required to reach a desired accuracy \(\delta\).

Formula

$$ if (\Delta == 0.0) \quad n_\tau = 0.0 \\ \quad \quad else \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad n_\tau = -log(|\Delta|/|\delta|) \\ if (n_\tau < 0.0) \quad n_\tau = 0.0 $$
