Simple Way to Reduce AC Voltage
One way to step down the voltage to adjust the voltage levels and match specific requirements is by using a capacitor in series with the circuit to reduce the AC voltage. In this article, we will explore the process of reducing AC voltage …
Capacitor in Electronics – What It Is and What It Does
A capacitor is an electrical component that stores energy in an electric field. It is a passive device that consists of two conductors separated by an insulating material known as a dielectric. When a voltage is applied across …
RC step response
We apply an abrupt step in voltage to a resistor-capacitor $(text{RC})$ circuit and watch what happens to the voltage across the capacitor, $goldC{v(t)}$. We introduce the method of …
