6.2 The Capacitor Circuit symbol There is a relationship between current and voltage for a capacitor, just as there is for a resistor. However, for the capacitor, the current is related to the change in the voltage, as follows. C C dv iC dt This relationship holds when the voltage and current are drawn in the passive sign convention.

Ohm''s Law: Understanding the Relationship between Voltage, …

The resistance of most materials changes with temperature. As temperature increases, the resistance of the conductor typically increases, resulting in a decrease in current according to Ohm''s law, assuming the voltage remains the same.

Understanding Current-Voltage Curves

Capacitors and inductors are fundamentally different in that their current-voltage relationships involve the rate of change. In the case of a capacitor, the current through the capacitor at any given moment is the product of capacitance and the rate of change (i.e., the derivative with respect to time) of the voltage across the capacitor.

Capacitor Impedance Calculator

The above equation gives you the reactance of a capacitor. To convert this to the impedance of a capacitor, simply use the formula Z = -jX. Reactance is a more straightforward value; it tells you how much resistance a capacitor will have at a certain frequency. Impedance, however, is needed for comprehensive AC circuit analysis.

Parallel capacitors results in a lower Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) than a single capacitor of larger value. LF capacitors (with higher ESR) have good performance in a wider range of frequency. Using multiple capacitors would not only reduce reduce the heat generated (by ESR), but would also help spread the heat.

Dissipation factor

The loss tangent is defined by the angle between the capacitor''s impedance vector and the negative reactive axis. If the capacitor is used in an AC circuit, the dissipation factor due to the non-ideal capacitor is expressed as the ratio of the resistive power loss in the ESR to the reactive power oscillating in the capacitor, or

As with the simple inductor circuit, the 90-degree phase shift between voltage and current results in a power wave that alternates equally between positive and negative.

The resistance of an ideal capacitor is infinite. The reactance of an ideal capacitor, and therefore its impedance, is negative for all frequency and capacitance values. The effective impedance (absolute value) of a capacitor is dependent on the frequency, and for ideal capacitors always decreases with frequency. Impedance of an inductor

Equivalent series resistance

Capacitors and inductors as used in electric circuits are not ideal components with only capacitance or inductance. However, they can be treated, to a very good degree of approximation, as being ideal capacitors and inductors in series with a resistance; this resistance is defined as the equivalent series resistance (ESR). If not otherwise specified, the ESR is always an AC resistance, which means it is measured at specified frequencies, 100 kHz for switched-mode power supply compo…
