The possibility of creating a frequency-tunable function generator with rectangular and triangular pulses of constant amplitude and electronic synchronous control of equivalent capacitances in the ...

First, let's define a capacitor: It is an electromechanical device capable of storing electrical energy (electrons). It differs from a battery, as a battery produces electrical energy as a by-product ...

A research group has successfully developed a high-capacity capacitor, an energy storage device -- using a solid electrolyte with high deformability -- that can operate at high temperatures. With this ...

Switched-capacitor blocks are easily configured to be integrators. When configured as an integrator, a switch-capacitor block can function as an op amp. Closed-loop stability is achieved by ...

A capacitor is a passive electronic component that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It consists of two conducting plates separated by an insulating material called a dielectric. When a ...

A snubber circuit limits voltage spikes in power converters. Snubbers are also used in the output of Class-D audio amplifiers for the same reasons (Fig. 1). When the transistor you use to switch the ...
