(2) When the pulse is first applied to the circuit, the full
input voltage appears across R, since the capacitor has no charge.
At this time, ER is equal to E and Ec is equal to zero. The
capacitor begins to charge exponentially to a value determined by the
universal time constant chart (Figure 20). As the voltage
