constant current generated by PNP transistor and resistors.

follows:

Here the Vp-p is the peak-to-peak voltage.

V=Q/C

The above equation divided on both sides by T gives us

and may be simplified into the following equation.

S=I/C

(17)

In other words, the gradient of the linear ramp function appearing across the capacitor can be obtained by using the constant

current flowing through the capacitor.

If the constant current flow through the capacitor is 0.215mA and the capacitance is 0.02uF, the gradient of the ramp function

at both ends of the capacitor is S=0.215m/0.022u=9.77V/ms.
