What is the purpose of a coupling capacitor?

A coupling capacitor does the same work as its name suggests, that is coupling one stage of the electronic circuit with another. It does that without passing the DC bias voltages between stages so that these stages are not affected by each other.To block or avoid the flow of D.C and to allow only A.C


Why bypass capacitor of the second stage to disconnect to get the output?

we can use the Out Put Capacitor Ex Kvar


How does coupling capacitor couples two stages in a multi stage amplifier?

A: it could be both coupling meaning eliminate DC from the source or decoupling whereby unwanted signal is bypassed to ground


For capacitance measurement using a bridge is it more appropriate to use DC or AC Any diff in values?

It is better to use AC. Impedance of the capacitor depends upon the frequency of the input signal. If we apply DC input signal than f = 0, that means Z approaches to infinity. If you apply the DC input signal then the current shall flow only for the time the capacitor is not charged. As the capacitor is charged current flow stops. At this point it is almost impossible to measure the voltage across capacitors because as you apply voltmeter across the capacitors, capacitors start to discharge through voltmeter (at this stage input impedance of the voltmeter is less as compared to that of capacitor). So if you use AC then this situation does not occur, moreover you can control the impedance of the capacitor by varying the frequency of the input signal.

What happens when you remove capacitor in filter circuit?

The capacitors allow the signal to pass through, while 'blocking' the DC voltage level that the signal is 'riding' on. Are you asking to remove the capacitor and connect it straight through? If you had a multistage amplifier, then the DC riding voltage would try to get amplified as well, and the next stage amplifier would probably 'max out' and you'd wind up with just solid DC output, or components further along in the circuit could be damaged. If you're asking if the capacitor was taken out (like if it blew) then no signal would get through.

What is the difference between a standard capacitor and a coupling capacitor?

Coupling capacitors are used to couple different stages so as to prevent DC from the o/p of one stage to go into the i/p of the next stage. For instance in coupling two BJT (bipolar junction transistors) it is required to use coupling capacitor to allow only ac signal from the o/p of fisrt stage to go to i/p of next BJT as incoming dc can distrub the biasing of the other BJT. Bypass capacitors are used to bypass the ac signal to ground. A capacitor is connected b/w the gnd and the wire. For ac signal capacitor will behave as short and will bypass it. However dc will not be bypassed as capacitor will behave as open for DC.


Why you use capacitor in transistor amplifier in output?

The capacitor is used to block DC bias from the output, so that only the AC signal is passed. In an audio amplifier, for instance, unwanted DC in the output would cause distortion when fed to a speaker, or could even damage the speaker or amplifier. In the case of interstage capacitors, they block DC so that the output of the first stage does not affect the bias of the second stage.


Why pi filter is practically preferred to get pure DC output?

it is because in pi-filter the filtration process occurs twice so its efficiency would be much larger than any any of the filters. it has three components :- 1. capacitor 2.choke-coil 3. capacitor when the rectified signal passes through the filter the capacitor c1 provides a low resistance path to the ac component there by filtering the signal at the first stage and the inductor provides the low resistance path for the dc component and the capacitor c2 provides low resistance path for the remaining ac component there by performing the second stage of filtering and allowing the dc component to pass through the resistor . due to the double filtering the signal is almost smooth as the plain dc siganl , so tis can be used for various apllications


How does an astable circuit work?

astable network means it has only one stable state.so the circuit need trigger input to change to another stage and it automatically changes to the previous stage when the process completed with the use of the capacitor.


Why you use coupling capacitor in electronic amplifier?

It is used to couple output of one stage to input of next stage


Why is the polarity of capacitors in RC coupled amplifiers such that the negative terminal receives the input signal?

The input signal is assumed to have zero DC bias. Input stages will typically have a positive bias on the base or grid, respectively, of the first stage transistor or tube. So, the input terminal is more negative. ANSWER: The polarity of the capacitor is determined by the bias polarity as used. If the bias is negative then the capacitor negative terminal must be connected to it.

What is circuit coupling?

A coupling circuit connects the output of one stage of a system to the input of another stage. There are many different types of coupling circuits (e.g. direct coupled, resistor coupled, capacitor coupled, transformer coupled) each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
