The exact formula is ln(upper rise time limit / lower rise time limit) /=0D=
=0A
(2 * pi)=0D=0A
=0D=0A
ln(0.9/0.1)/2/pi =3D 0.35014 for 10% to 90% rise time=0D=0A
ln(0.8/0.2)/2/pi =3D 0.21972 for 20% to 80% rise time =0D=0A

I will try to find a reference since the results are well known (and=0D=0A
derived in many textbooks) but in the meantime this is what I recall:=0D=0A
=0D=0A
1. If the channel has an exponential impulse response, such as would be=0D=
=0A
obtained from a simple RC low-pass filter, then the 3dB bandwidth (BW)=0D=
=0A
of that channel is related (exactly) to the 10-90% risetime (t) of the=0D=
=0A
step response of the same channel by the formula:=0D=0A
=0D=0A
    t =3D3D 0.35/BW        this is an exact result - no approximation=0D=0A
=0D=0A
2. If the channel has a gaussian impulse response, such as would be=0D=0A
obtained from a cascade of a large number of low-pass filters with=0D=0A
arbitrary response but conmensurate bandwidths, then the relationship=0D=0A
between bandwidth and risetime is:=0D=0A
=0D=0A
    t =3D3D 0.5/BW    this is also an exact result=0D=0A
=0D=0A
For other channels the numerator in the above formula tends to be=0D=0A
somewhere in between 0.35 and 0.5.=0D=0A
=0D=0A
