Why gang capacitor called so?

GANG capacitor is called so because it group of capacitor


Uses of gang capacitor?

Gang capacitors are commonly used in radio tuners/receivers. Radio tuners/receivers have formation of LC(inductance and capacitor). Here this circuit has one fixed inductance and capacitor parallel with gang capacitor. Normally gang capacitor used in superhetrodyne receiver.


Why is gang capacitor known as gang capacitor?

Because they are Ganged ( Grouped ) together , such that they can be tuned through a single tuner.

Can you by-pass a capacitor in an electric motor?

You can not by-pass the capacitor in an electric motor. Most are capacitor-start motors which require the capacitor to be operational in order to start. If the capacitor is not working then it will need to be replaced.


What is meant by a capacitor's working voltage?

A capacitor's working voltage is the maximum voltage that the device can take without danger of breaking down the insulation between the plates. Above the working voltage, the insulation begins to deteriorate and the capacitor may short, explode, or simply stop working depending on the design of the part.


What is the use of gang capacitor in the field of embedded system?

Gang capacitor is used along with an inductor coil(L) in a LC circuit to tune to a particular frequency which is to be received. The frequency of a LC combination is given by the formula f=1/(2*pi*L*C). here f is the frequency to be received. L is the inductance. C is the capacitance. The capacitance(C) of the Gang capacitor can be varied to tune to different frequencies. I recently made my college project in which I used Gang capacitor in a FM receiver circuit. The received signal was decoded and sent to a micro-controller and then to a computer. I hope this is of sm help to u! VISHESH Delhi, India.


What should be the value of capacitor at transistor amplifier circuit input?

at full input, if the transistor is working, the value of capacitor will be 0.


What safety precautions should be followed when working on radio and tv capacitors?

The primary precaution when working on any capacitor is to ensure that the capacitor is disconnected from electrical sources and that it has been fully discharged.


When working on a capacitor the connection points should be?

That depends on the circuit you are modifying.
