1 Chapter 6 Capacitors and Inductors

2 Capacitors A typical capacitor A capacitor consists of two conducting plates separated by an insulator (or dielectric). C: capacitance Unit: farad(F)

3 Values: picofarad (pF) -- microfarad (mF) Polyester Mica Electrolytic Ceramic Types: fixed variable Circuit symbols for capacitors a) fixed capacitor b) variable capacitor

4 VAR of Capacitor Passive sign convention A capacitor is an open circuit to dc The voltage on the capacitor cannot change abruptly (in condition that i is limited)

5 Stored Energy in Capacitor Is capacitor active? equivalent circuit for the parallel capacitors

6 Equivalent circuit for the series capacitors

7 Inductors An inductor consists of a coil of conducting wire. Typical form of an inductor L: inductance Unit: henry (H)

8 Circuit symbols for inductors Values: microhenrys(  H)--- tens of henrys(H) Types: Fixed variable Iron, steel Plastic, air

9 VAR of Inductor What happens when the current is constant? Integrating form: An inductor acts like a short circuit to dc. The current through an inductor cannot change abruptly (in condition that v is limited).

10 Stored Energy in Inductor Is inductor active? Equivalent circuit for the series inductors

11 Equivalent circuit for the parallel inductors
