When capacitors are connected in series, the total capacitance is less than any one of the series capacitors’ individual capacitances. If two or more are connected, the overall effect is that of a ...

Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

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 ...

Many analog signal-chain circuits require ac-coupling to eliminate unwanted dc voltages or offsets. The simplest means to ac-couple is to use a capacitor in series with the signal path, thus forming a ...
