The time for stage to move to a commanded position and settle to within 2% of its final value of the step size. A small signal step response reflects the dynamic characteristics of the system in more detail. Therefore, small signal settling time is normally used in the specifications of nPoint's nanopositioning products — the settling time for the response to 1 micrometer step signal.
The time required for the servo system to lock onto the new track
The time required for a disk drive’s read/write head to stabilize over a new site after being moved from another position over the disk.
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a specified error band about its final value, measured from the start of the output transition.
Mathematically related to the filter transfer function, settling time (See Delay) represents the time required for a filter transfer function to stabilize following introduction of a signal. General guide-line, the more the filter approaches a brick-wall approximation, the longer it will take to settle.
When an output voltage swings full-scale through the range of the D/A converter, the settling time tells how long it will take for the output to settle to its new value.
The time required for the device to attain 90 percent of the detected RF output referenced to the 10 percent level.
The time required for a voltage to stabilize at its final value (usually within a specified error range).
the time for an applied change in input voltage to result in a changed output voltage (stable within specified limits)
The time it takes to after a move completes to settle to within a specified tolerance band (i.e.: to within ± 1µm).
When a change in signal occurs, the time taken for the input or output channel to settle to its new value.
The time required for a parameter to stop oscillating or ringing and reach its final value.
The elapsed time that a product remains undisturbed or unagitated between receipt of product into and discharge from storage.
The time required, following the initiation of a specified stimulus to the system, for the output to enter and remain within a specified narrow band centered on its steady-state value.
The time taken for the display to settle within one digit final value when a step is applied to the meter input.
For a DAC, settling time is the interval between a command to update (change) its output value and the instant it reaches its final value, within a specified percentage. Settling time is affected by the slew rate of an output amplifier and by the amount of amplifier ringing and signal overshoot. For an ADC, it is essential that the time required for voltage on the sampling capacitor to settle to within 1 LSB be less than the converter's acquisition time.
ST usec The time it takes the output to respond to setp change of input and come into, and remain within a defined error band (usually 0.1% or 0.01%), as measured relative to the 50% point of the input pulse.
For a measuring instrument, the time between application of a step input signal and the indication of its magnitude within a rated accuracy. For a sourcing instrument, the time between a programmed change and the availability of the value at its output terminals. For a switching card, the time required for establishing relay connections and stabilizing user circuits. Also known as Response Time.
Time it takes for a voltage to settle and remain within a specified error band around the final value.
The time taken for the signal appearing at the output of a device to settle to a new value caused by a change of input signal.
time required for the motor to come to rest at its commanded position; a measure of system performance.
The period required for a signal to assume its correct value after a change of state. In digital applications, the length of time needed for a digital-to-analog converter's output voltage to reach a stable value.
The time required after a change for a circuit or test instrument to reach its steady state.
Amount of time that it takes the output of a digital-to-analog converter to go from zero to within one-half step size of its full-scale value as the input is changed from all 0s to all 1s.
Settling time (aka centrelink time) stems from the system response and time constant.
