  2. Capacitance multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_multiplier

    A capacitance multiplier is designed to make a capacitor function like a much larger capacitor. This can be achieved in at least two ways. An active circuit, using a device such as a transistor or operational amplifier; A passive circuit, using autotransformers. These are typically used for calibration standards.

  3. Voltage doubler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_doubler

    Figure 2.Greinacher circuit. The Greinacher voltage doubler is a significant improvement over the Villard circuit for a small cost in additional components. The ripple is much reduced, nominally zero under open-circuit load conditions, but when current is being drawn depends on the resistance of the load and the value of the capacitors used.

  4. Electrical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_element

    To model the nonideal behavior of a real circuit component may require a combination of multiple ideal electrical elements to approximate its function. For example, an inductor circuit element is assumed to have inductance but no resistance or capacitance, while a real inductor, a coil of wire, has some resistance in addition to its inductance ...

  5. Electronic circuit simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_circuit_simulation

    Since ports are only attached to node 1 and node 4, nodes 2 and 3 need to be removed through Kron reduction. The table below shows the reduced Y parameter matrix of the Chebyshev filter example simulation after nodes 2 and 4 are eliminated. The nodes of the reduced table are renumbered to 1 and 2.

  6. 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.

  7. Open-circuit time constant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_time_constant...

    Form the product C 2 ( R 1 + R 2). Select capacitor C 1, replace it by a test voltage V X, and replace C 2 by an open circuit. Then the resistance seen by the test voltage is found using the circuit in the right panel of Figure 1 and is simply V X / I X = R 1. Form the product C 1 R 1. Add these terms. In effect, it is as though each capacitor ...

  8. Parasitic extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitic_extraction

    In electronic design automation, parasitic extraction is the calculation of the parasitic effects in both the designed devices and the required wiring interconnects of an electronic circuit: parasitic capacitances, parasitic resistances and parasitic inductances, commonly called parasitic devices, parasitic components, or simply parasitics.

  9. Switched capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_capacitor

    The simplest switched-capacitor (SC) circuit is made of one capacitor and two switches S 1 and S 2 which alternatively connect the capacitor to either in or out at a switching frequency of . Recall that Ohm's law can express the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance as:
