| Because of the exponential function, charging is theoretically only complete after an infinitely long time. The capacitor voltage equals ${\rm 63}~{\rm\%~} U$ after ${\rm 1}\cdot \tau$, ${\rm 86}~{\rm\%~} U$ after ${\rm 2}\cdot \tau$, ${\rm 95}~{\rm\%~} U$ after ${\rm 3}\cdot \tau$, ${\rm 98}~{\rm\%~} U$ after ${\rm 4}\cdot \tau$, and ${\rm 99}~{\rm\%~} U$ after ${\rm 5}\cdot \tau$. It is assumed that the capacitor is fully charged after a time span $T = {\rm 5}\cdot \tau$ and the voltage across the capacitor has reached $U$. If the charged capacitor $C$ is discharged through a resistor $R$, the solution of the differential equation for the voltage is: \\ | Because of the exponential function, charging is theoretically only complete after an infinitely long time.
