Capacitors A basic capacitor has two parallel plates separated by an insulating material l A capacitor stores an electrical charge between the two plates l The unit of capacitance is Farads (F) l Capacitance values are normally smaller, such as µF, n. F or p. F l
Capacitors l Basic capacitor construction Plate 2 Dielectric material Plate 1 The dielectric material is an insulator therefore no current flows through the capacitor
Capacitors Storing a charge between the plates l Electrons on the left plate are attracted toward the positive terminal of the voltage source l This leaves an excess of positively charged holes l The electrons are pushed toward the right plate l Excess electrons leave a negative charge + + + _ _ -
Capacitors Types of capacitors l The dielectric material determines the type of capacitor l Common types of capacitors are: l Mica l Ceramic l Plastic film
Capacitors l l Some capacitors are polarised, they can only be connected one way around Electrolytic capacitors are polarised
Capacitors l l l Variable capacitors are used in communication equipment, radios, televisions and VCRs They can be adjusted by consumers by tuning controls Trimmers are internal adjusted capacitors that a consumer cannot adjust
Capacitors l l These variable capacitors would be difficult to squeeze into your mobile phone and i. Pod Current technology uses semi-conductor variable capacitors called varactors (varicaps)
Capacitor A capacitor consists of two conductors separated by an insulator, which could be air or even a vacuum. Metal Plates Insulating Material (Dielectric)
Some Capacitors conductor insulator
Capacitance : Definition l Take two chunks of conductor l l l Apply a potential V between them Charge (Q) will appear on the conductors, l l l Separated by insulator Q+ = +CV Q- = -CV C depends upon both: l l “geometry” Insulator material (dielectric) Q+ = +CV +++++++++++ V V -- --0 - -------V C = Q

Types of Capacitors Parallel-Plate Capacitor Cylindrical Capacitor A cylindrical capacitor is a parallel-plate capacitor that has been rolled up with an insulating layer between the plates.
Dielectrics - Insulator Air - Often used in radio tuning circuits
Dielectrics Ceramic - Used for high frequency purposes like antennas, X-ray and MRI machines
Dielectrics Mylar - Most commonly used for timer circuits like clocks, alarms and counters
Dielectrics l Glass - Good for high voltage applications
Dielectrics Super capacitor - Powers electric and hybrid cars
