ideal capacitor
1Capacitor — This article is about the electronic component. For the physical phenomenon, see capacitance. For an overview of various kinds of capacitors, see types of capacitor. Capacitor Modern capacitors, by a cm ruler Type Passive …
2Electrolytic capacitor — An electrolytic capacitor is a type of capacitor that uses an ionic conducting liquid as one of its plates. Typically with a larger capacitance per unit volume than other types, they are valuable in relatively high current and low frequency… …
3Decoupling capacitor — A decoupling capacitor is a capacitor used to decouple one part of an electrical network (circuit) from another. Noise caused by other circuit elements is shunted through the capacitor, reducing the effect they have on the rest of the circuit.… …
4Electric double-layer capacitor — Maxwell Technologies MC and BC series supercapacitors (up to 3000 farad capacitance) An electric double layer capacitor (EDLC), also known as supercapacitor, supercondenser, electrochemical double layer capacitor, or ultracapacitor, is an… …
5Dissipation factor — In physics, the dissipation factor (DF) is a measure of loss rate of energy of a mode of oscillation (mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical) in a dissipative system. It is the reciprocal of Quality factor, which represents the quality of… …
6Loss tangent — The loss tangent is a parameter of a dielectric material that quantifies its inherent dissipation of electromagnetic energy. The term refers to the tangent of the angle in a complex plane between the resistive (lossy) component of an… …
7Dynatron oscillator — A dynatron oscillator is an electronic circuit that uses negative resistance to keep an LC tank circuit oscillating. In theory, if an ideal capacitor is connected in parallel with an ideal inductor, they form a resonant circuit that, once it… …
8Permittivity — A dielectric medium showing orientation of charged particles creating polarization effects. Such a medium can have a higher ratio of electric flux to charge (permittivity) than empty space In electromagnetism, absolute permittivity is the measure …
9Dielectric absorption — is the name given to the effect by which a capacitor that has been charged for a long time discharges only incompletely when briefly discharged. Although an ideal capacitor would remain at zero volts after being discharged, real capacitors will… …
10Constant phase element — A constant phase element is an equivalent electrical circuit component that models the behaviour of a double layer, that is an imperfect capacitor. The electrical impedance can be calculated: with Q0 = 1/|Z| at ω = 1 rad/s The constant phase is… …
