  2. Ćuk converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ćuk_converter

    The diode and the switch are simplified as either a short circuit when they are on or by an open circuit when they are off. When in the off-state, the capacitor C is charged by the input source through the inductor L 1. When in the on-state, the capacitor C transfers the energy to the output capacitor through the inductance L 2.

  3. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.

  4. RC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_circuit

    A resistor–capacitor circuit (RC circuit), or RC filter or RC network, is an electric circuit composed of resistors and capacitors. It may be driven by a voltage or current source and these will produce different responses. A first order RC circuit is composed of one resistor and one capacitor and is the simplest type of RC circuit.

  5. Capacitive coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_coupling

    Polyester film capacitors, commonly used for coupling between two circuits. In analog circuits, a coupling capacitor is used to connect two circuits such that only the AC signal from the first circuit can pass through to the next while DC is blocked. This technique helps to isolate the DC bias settings of the two

  6. AC-to-AC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-to-AC_converter

    An AC-AC converter with approximately sinusoidal input currents and bidirectional power flow can be realized by coupling a pulse-width modulation (PWM) rectifier and a PWM inverter to the DC-link. The DC-link quantity is then impressed by an energy storage element that is common to both stages, which is a capacitor C for the voltage DC-link or ...

  7. Capacitive power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_power_supply

    Analyzing the circuit of the lamp shown in the image, at 50 Hz, the 1.2 μF capacitor has a reactance of 2.653 kΩ. By Ohm's law, the current is limited to 240 V/2653 Ω ≈ 90 mA, assuming that voltage and frequency remain constant. The LEDs are connected in parallel with the 10 μF electrolytic filter capacitor.

  8. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    This circuit does not have a resistor like the above, but all tuned circuits have some resistance, causing them to function as an RLC circuit. An RLC circuit is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C), connected in series or in parallel. The name of the circuit is derived from the letters that ...

  9. Voltage doubler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_doubler

    A voltage doubler is an electronic circuit which charges capacitors from the input voltage and switches these charges in such a way that, in the ideal case, exactly twice the voltage is produced at the output as at its input. The simplest of these circuits is a form of rectifier which take an AC voltage as input and outputs a doubled DC voltage ...
