a capacitor that keeps time Capacitors do not keep time they do however charge at a specific rate of 63% of the applied voltage from a source that can be used to relate to timing since the source voltage can be calculated after a time lapse
What else can I help you with?
Why is capacitor leakage a problem in a RC timer circuit?
Because the timing is set by the time constant of a resistor and a capacitor. With R in ohms and C in Farads, the time-constant is RC in seconds. If the capacitor leaks the timing will be wrong.
Can a 7.5 mfd capacitor be used in place of a 5 mfd capacitor?
Sometimes. The exception is when the capacitor is used as a "timing" device. But 7.5 mfd and 5 mfd are so large that one would guess that they are not being used as timing devices.

Can a 47 microfarad capacitor in a microtimer circuit be replaced with a 470 microfarad capacitor?
No, the value is far too small. If it is the capacitor used for the timing, the time/s will be reduced to one tenth of the deisred value.
What effect does increasing the timing capacitor have on the frequency out of an Astable 555 timer?
frequency drops
What is the relationship between capacitor resistance and the overall performance of an electronic circuit?
The relationship between capacitor resistance and the overall performance of an electronic circuit is that the resistance of a capacitor affects the charging and discharging times of the capacitor, which can impact the timing and stability of the circuit. Higher resistance can lead to slower charging and discharging, potentially affecting the circuit's functionality and efficiency.
Can you go from a 1000uf to a 1200uf capacitor with the same voltage?
Capacitance and voltage may be varied independently of one another, but the outcome depends exactly what the circuit is and what role this capacitor plays. If it's a timing capacitor, the time constant will increase. Certainly the impedance will change in a circuit where it's required to decouple a rail with ripple present; as a filter or as a coupling capacitor.
How do you set the timing on a 1991 xr200r?
Turn the rear gear valve to the 'on' position, then adjust the flux capacitor regulation system freely.
What happens to the lamp when the capacitor is removed?
When the capacitor is removed from a circuit containing a lamp, the behavior of the lamp depends on the circuit configuration. In a basic circuit where the capacitor is used for filtering or smoothing, the lamp may flicker or turn off due to the loss of charge stabilization, leading to inconsistent voltage. If the capacitor is part of a timing or oscillation circuit, the lamp may stop functioning altogether. Overall, the removal of the capacitor typically disrupts the normal operation of the lamp.
What is a pure capacitor?
A pure capacitor is an idealized version of a capacitor that has only capacitive reactance and no resistance or inductance. It stores and releases electrical energy in the form of an electric field. Pure capacitors are often used in electronic circuits for filtering, smoothing, timing, and energy storage purposes.
Is there a capacitor on HEI ignition systems?
Yes, HEI (High Energy Ignition) systems typically include a capacitor, also known as a capacitor discharge unit. This component helps to store and release energy to create a stronger spark at the ignition coil, improving ignition efficiency and performance. The capacitor plays a crucial role in the timing and intensity of the spark, contributing to better engine performance and fuel efficiency.
