Charging the Membrane

when time is equal to the time constant, we get the definition for charging the membrane

V∞V_{\infty} = mV

Charging the Membrane


Vm(t=τ)=V∞∗(1−e−1) V_m\left(t=\tau \right) = V_{\infty} * \left(1 - e^{-1}\right)

Vm(t=τ)=NaN mV∗(1−e−1)=NaN mV V_m \left( t = \tau \right) = NaN\ mV * \left( 1 - e^{-1} \right) = NaN\ mV


Discharging the Membrane

Vm(t=τ)=V∞∗e−1 V_m\left(t=\tau \right) = V_{\infty} * e^{-1}


Vm(t=τ)=NaN mV∗e−1=NaN mV V_m \left( t = \tau \right) = NaN\ mV * e^{-1} = NaN \ mV
