Capacitors are fundamental passive components used in electronic circuits for energy storage, filtering, coupling, and timing. Among them, Non-polar or Non-polarized Capacitors hold a special place because they can operate with AC signals and DC voltages of either polarity. Their versatility and stability make them essential in audio systems, RF circuits, SMPS, industrial power systems, […]
Capacitors are fundamental components in electronic circuits, performing various critical functions. Among the many types of capacitors, coupling, decoupling, and bypass capacitors are particularly important. Although they might seem similar at first glance, each serves a unique purpose in ensuring the proper functioning of electronic systems. This article explores the differences between coupling, decoupling, and […]
A decoupling capacitor is a capacitor used in electronic circuits to decouple one part of a circuit from another. It serves two primary functions: Filtering out Noise: It filters out high-frequency noise or transients on the power supply lines. Stabilizing Voltage: It provides a local reservoir of charge to stabilize the voltage supplied to an […]
