Would a radio be an example, when you are tuning it to a high frequency? Also I am using a square wave form to display the results - is that because the wave form is going simulating an 'on and off' form even though it will be exponential. Also would background noise effect the measurements...

On second thoughts, would calculating or measuring the impedance of the function generator or oscilloscope matter because I am measuring the voltage across the capacitor such that I measure the peak voltage and various voltages in time along the discharging part of the curve - then I would be...

Hi everyone. I'm doing an experiment where I measure the capacitance of a capacitor. However I want to make sure that the output impedance of the function generator is low (to get accurate results). My circuit is attached. How do I calculate the impedance from the information provided? Help is...
