How do multiple capacitors behave as a single equivalent capacitor? ⚡ This video explains how to find equivalent capacitance using fundamental physics, covering series and parallel combinations and ...

This circuit for measurement of inductance and capacitance can be used to test whether the values of inductors and capacitors quoted by the manufacturer are correct. The principle used in the circuit ...

Last month's column explained that AC current flowing through an inductance reaches its peak amplitude after the voltage. Lagging current is characteristic of an inductive circuit. Capacitive circuits ...

Engineers designing power electronics find that capacitors are needed for several functions, from energy storage to filters and decoupling. Different capacitor types are available, that at first sight ...

Out of all of the fundamental passive electronic components, capacitors are arguably the most abundantly used. In fact, it is hard to find a circuit board that does not have a capacitor on it and a ...

If you build electronic circuits on a regular basis the chances are you will have used capacitors many times. They are a standard component along with the resistor whose values are lifted off the ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced that the company has extended its 193 PUR-SI series of miniature ...

Variable capacitors may be useful, but the air gap that provides their capacitance is their greatest weakness. Rather than deal with the poor dielectric properties of air, some high-end variable ...

Every year lakhs of students appear in the Joint entrance examination. 12 lakh students appear in JEE Main 2017. This number is increasing each year and with it the competition is also increasing. To ...
