Why capacitor is used before UM66 in circuit for melody generator?

We used capacitor in UM66 because capacitors are used to store the energy, and hence when we press the switch it will charged the capacitor and energy stored in it, and after releasing the switch it releases the energy. So, we can use the capacitor to store the energy.


Why you use capacitors in power supply?
