The capacitor with lowest leakage is?

A capacitor with low leakage typically refers to a ceramic capacitor, specifically those with C0G or NPO dielectric material. These types of capacitors have very low leakage currents due to their stable and non-polarized characteristics.


Is a power factor capacitor different from a regular capacitor?

A power factor capacitor is a power capacitor. I'm not sure what you mean by "regular". There are different types, made from different materials that have better/worse characteristics than others depending on the application. You could use any high power capacitor for power factor correction, as long as it is sized correctly for the load and voltage.


What is a non polarized capacitor?

A polarized capacitor is one which has a polarity, positive on one terminal, negative on the other. This makes it superficially look like a battery. In use, the capacitor has its positive voltage always higher than that on the negative terminal, it matters that this is the case and this gives rise to the term polarized. This sort of capacitor is commonly found in power supply filters.


What are the starting and running characteristics of a capacitor-start motor?

Easier to start up. Running remains the same unless it is equipped with a run capacitor too. A run capacitor uses a little less current during run and probably runs a little cooler too.


What are the characteristics of a circuit with a capacitor and inductor in parallel?

A circuit with a capacitor and inductor in parallel has the characteristics of resonating at a specific frequency, allowing for energy storage and exchange between the two components. This type of circuit can exhibit high impedance at the resonant frequency, leading to unique filtering and tuning capabilities.


What are the key characteristics and applications of a cylindrical capacitor?

A cylindrical capacitor is a type of capacitor that consists of two cylindrical conductors separated by a dielectric material. The key characteristics of a cylindrical capacitor include its capacitance, which is determined by the size and spacing of the conductors, and its ability to store and release electrical energy. Cylindrical capacitors are commonly used in applications where space is limited, such as in electronic devices and power supplies. They are also used in high-voltage applications, such as in medical equipment and industrial machinery, due to their ability to withstand high voltages.


What is the effect on voltage gain in a common emitter amplifier when the decoupling capacitor is removed?

The emitter bypass capacitor, in a typical common emitter configuration, increases gain as a function of frequency, making a high pass filter. Removing the capacitor will remove the gain component due to frequency, and the amplifier will degrade to its DC characteristics.


How does the behavior of a circuit change when a capacitor and resistor are connected in parallel?

When a capacitor and resistor are connected in parallel in a circuit, the behavior changes in that the capacitor stores and releases electrical energy while the resistor controls the flow of current. This combination can affect the overall impedance and time constant of the circuit, leading to changes in the voltage and current characteristics.


Why can a run capacitor with a single phase motor remain in circuit after the motor starts?

A run capacitor is used to improve the efficiency and power factor of a single-phase motor by providing a phase shift to the auxiliary winding. Once the motor is running, the capacitor helps maintain a steady motor speed and performance. It remains in the circuit to assist in the motor's operation.


What is difference between capacitor and super capacitor?

Super capacitor have high capacitance compare to normal capacitor. Super capacitor use two layer of dielectric medium whereas in normal capacitor single medium dielectric. Because of this super capacitor use as alternate power source for RTC when computer is off.


What is dc link capacitor?

when the DC current flows through the capacitor .the leakage of the charges is in capacitor called Dc leakage capacitor .


How long does it take for a battery to charge a capacitor?

Usually a tiny fraction of a second. Actually it will depend on the characteristics of the the capacitor, and of the remaining circuit (mainly, any resistor in series). The "time constant" of a capacitor with a resistor in series to charge from 0 to a fraction of (1 - 1/e), about 68%, of its final value. This time is the product of the resistance and the capacitance. After about 5 time constant, you can consider the capacitor completely loaded for all practical purposes - i.e., it will be at the same voltage as the battery.
