One of the standard types of components in electronic circuits is capacitors, and often occurring in practical circuits are the complicated combinations of capacitors. When we connect two capacitors ...

Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

Look at almost any circuit, and it’s nearly sure that there will be a capacitor included in it. These two-terminal electrical components rank alongside resistors.

Capacitors connected in parallel, the total capacitance is the sum of the individual capacitors’ capacitances. If two or more are connected in parallel, the effect is that of a single equivalent ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

Abstract: In order to solve the excitation problem of wound rotor synchronous starter/generator (WRSSG) in the starting mode, an approximate three-phase ac excitation method with parallel capacitors ...

As engineering innovations continue to advance ultracapacitors, their enhanced performance capabilities are expected to hasten the convergence of batteries and ultracapacitors—strengthening the ...
