Chapter 5 – Capacitance & Inductance • Capacitor, also called electrical condenser, device for storing an electrical charge. • In its simplest form a capacitor is two metal plates separated by a non-conducting layer called the dielectric. Air, mica, ceramics, paper, oil, and vacuums are used as dielectrics. • When one plate is charged with electricity, the other plate acquires an opposite charge. The amount of electric charge a capacitor can hold is its capacitance. • Because capacitors conduct direct current for only an instant, they are used to prevent direct current from entering parts of electric circuits. Large capacitors make it possible for power lines to transmit more power.

Mica, glass, ceramic dielectrics are often used in high-frequency applications. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors use aluminum plates separated by a moistened borax paste and can provide relatively high values of capacitance in small volumes. These capacitors are often used in power supplies and motor-starting applications. Tantalum electrolytic capacitors have lower losses and more stable values (i.e. with respect to temperature) than aluminum electrolytics.

This force is can be written: Q1Q 2 F 2 4πεr Since the force is inversely proportional to the permitivity of the medium, the smaller the permitivity, the greater the force. Therefore, materials with a high permitivity do not support a strong (electrostatic) force field. Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 6 Capacitor Characteristics One farad is a large value. To illustrate, calculate the plate area needed to construct a 1F capacitor if: • the plates are separated by 0.1mm (1.010-4m) and • using air as a dielectric ( = 0 = 8.8510-12F/m) ε0A C d dC 1104 m 1F 7 2 A 1.73 10 m ε 0 8.85 1012 F / m Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance (2792 acres!) 7 Capacitor Characteristics • Typically, capacitors are measured in microfarads (F or uF), nanofarads (nF) or picofarads (pf). • Capacitance in a circuit may be deliberate (we insert a capacitor) or unintentional and simply due to the way in which a circuit is constructed (two long parallel conductors separated by air or plastic). • This unintentional capacitance is called stray capacitance, and it may affect the operation of a circuit significantly. Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 8 Capacitor Operation The charge differential between the plates of a capacitor stores energy. + - - - • An electrostatic force field is created between the plates. • The current which flows in the conductors to the capacitor does not flow through the dielectric. Rather, the electrostatic field (force field) set up by the differential charge causes charge (electrons) to be removed from one plate as charge (electrons) is deposited on the other. • There appears to be a continuous flow of current through the capacitor. • Our primary interest is the terminal characteristics of a capacitor, which can be described with the following equations. Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 9 Capacitor Equations The charge stored in a capacitor is proportional to the voltage across the capacitor. q(t ) Cv (t ) c C ic(t) + vc(t) - The current through a capacitor is proportional to the rate of change of the voltage dv (t ) ic (t ) C c dt Manipulating and integrating the previous equation allows us to express the voltage in terms of the current: t t 1 1 vc (t ) ic ( x)dx ic ( x)dx vc (t0 ) C t C t t0 Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 10 Capacitor Equations C q(t ) Cvc (t ) ic(t) + vc(t) - dvc (t ) ic (t ) C dt t t 1 1 vc (t ) ic ( x)dx ic ( x)dx vc (t0 ) C t C t t0 The change in the voltage across a capacitor is proportional to the area under the current (which is the amount of charge added to or subtracted from the capacitor). Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 11 Capacitor Power & Energy Equations Since p(t) = v(t) i(t) C ic(t) + vc(t) - Energy, w(t), is the integral of p(t), which yields: dvc (t ) p (t ) vc (t ) C dt 1 2 q 2 (t ) wc (t ) Cvc (t ) 2 2C Unlike a resistor, which always absorbs power, a capacitor may absorb or deliver power (store energy as we store charge and increase the strength of the electrostatic field and release energy as we remove charge and the electrostatic field collapses). That is, p(t) may be positive or negative for a capacitor. Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 12 Inductance • Like the capacitor, an inductor is a circuit element capable of storing energy. • Generally, an inductor is made by forming coils of wire around a core. The core may be air, nonmagnetic material, or magnetic material such as iron. Coils Core L Magnetic Flux Lines Schematic Symbol Fall 2001 ENGR201 Capacitance & Inductance 13 Inductance • Current flowing through the wire creates an electromagnetic (force) field around the wire. The strength of the field is affected by the number of coils, the amount of current, and the magnetic properties of the core. • Inductance may occur in a circuit unintentionally due to the way the circuit is constructed. Such inductance is called stray inductance.

That is, p(t) may be positive or negative for an inductor.
