hello,
I have just obtained multisim and have found it useful in testing circuits quickly . One problem at the moment though is simulating the charging of a capacitor. I am inexperienced with electronics and i would like to simulate the charging of a capacitor running in a series circuit with a resistor. I want the capacitor to have a voltmeter across it displaying the exponential increase of charge.
When i setup this circuit and power it up the voltmeter displays the full voltage almost straight away no matter what value i use for the capacitor or resistor. is there a way to simulate the circuit i described in real time displaying the sudden increase of voltage then the flatting out period.
Can anyone please offer any help?
Thanks Mark S.
