Capacitors




             The capacitor's function is to store electricity, or electrical energy. The capacitor also functions as a filter, passing alternating current (AC), and blocking direct current (DC). This symbol is used to indicate a capacitor in a circuit diagram. The capacitor is constructed with two electrode plates facing each other, but separated by an insulator. 


           When DC voltage is applied to the capacitor, an electric charge is stored on each electrode. While the capacitor is charging up, current flows. The current will stop flowing when the capacitor has fully charged.

Types Of the Capacitors:

Electrolytic Capacitors (Electrochemical type capacitors) 


 









Tantalum Capacitors












Ceramic Capacitors













Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors











Polystyrene Film Capacitors

 









Electric Double Layer Capacitors (Super Capacitors)












 









Polyester Film Capacitors












Polypropylene Capacitors



 









Mica Capacitors



 










Metalized Polyester Film Capacitors

 










Variable Capacitors
