Top 10 Global Capacitor Brands

Definition of Capacitor

A capacitor is an element that stores electricity and electrical energy (potential energy). A conductor surrounded by another conductor, or a conductor in which all the electric field lines emitted by one conductor terminate in the other conductor, is called a capacitor.

Two conductors in close proximity to each other with a layer of non-conducting insulating medium sandwiched between them, this constitutes a capacitor. A capacitor stores charge when a voltage is applied between the two extreme plates of the capacitor. The capacitance of a capacitor is numerically equal to the ratio of the charge on a conducting plate to the voltage between the two plates. The basic unit of capacitance of a capacitor is the farad (F). The letter C is usually used in circuit diagrams to denote a capacitive element.

Capacitors play an important role in circuits such as tuning, bypassing, coupling, and filtering. It is used in the tuning circuit of a transistor radio, and in the coupling and bypass circuits of a color television. With the rapid changes in electronic information technology, digital electronic products are updated more and more quickly to flat-panel TVs (LCD and PDP), notebook computers, digital cameras and other products based on the production and sales of consumer electronics products continue to grow, led to the growth of the capacitor industry.
