Capacitance of common sense of electronic components

1. Capacitance are generally represented by "C" plus a number in the circuit (for example, C13 represents the capacitor numbered 13). A capacitor is a component composed of two metal films close together and separated by an insulating material. The characteristic of the capacitor is mainly to block DC and pass AC. The size of the capacitor [...]

Capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR)

The main technical indicators of capacitors are capacitance, withstand voltage and temperature. In addition to these three main indicators, the more important of other indicators is equivalent series resistance (ESR). Some capacitors have a golden strip line with a big hollow letter "I" printed on it, which indicates that the capacitor is a LOW ESR low-loss [...]

The role of electrolytic capacitors

The role of electrolytic capacitors In the power supply circuit, the rectifier circuit turns AC into pulsating DC, and a larger capacity electrolytic capacitor is connected after the rectifier circuit. Using its charge and discharge characteristics, the rectified pulsating DC voltage becomes a relatively stable DC Voltage. In practice, in order to prevent the supply voltage [...]

What is a varistor?

Varistor is the abbreviation of voltage sensitive resistor, and it is a kind of non-linear resistance element. The resistance of the varistor is related to the voltage applied at both ends. When the voltage applied to the varistor is within its nominal value, the resistance of the resistor presents an infinite state, and almost no current [...]
