MEMRISTORS- THE FOURTH PASSIVE ELEMENT
Resistors, inductors and capacitors are known as the three basic passive elements in electrical and electronic engineering all...
WHAT ARE NONLINEAR RESISTORS?
A linear resistor has a constant ratio of voltage to current (Ohm’s Law), so doubling the voltage ideally...
SELECTION CRITERIA FOR HIGH FREQUENCY CAPACITORS
In passive components, there are high-frequency versions of components with operational specifications reaching up to very high frequencies....
WHAT ARE VACUUM CAPACITORS?
Vacuum capacitors use a high vacuum as dielectric. Vacuum is the strongest insulator, with no problems such as...
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITIES IN MAGNETIC AND ELECTRIC CIRCUITS?
Electrical and magnetic circuits behave in similar manner in several aspects. They share similar principles, laws and energy...
MAGNETIC RELUCTANCE- WHAT IS IT?
Magnetic reluctance is measure of opposition a material or magnetic circuit offers to the flow of magnetic flux....
HOW DOES CAPACITIVE VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER WORK?
Capacitive Voltage Transformers (CVTs), also known as Capacitor Voltage Transformers, are used to step down high transmission voltages...
WHAT IS MEANT BY SKIN EFFECT?
Skin effect is the tendency of alternating current (AC) to concentrate near a conductor surface rather than flowing...
WHAT MAKES MICA GOOD INSULATOR AND DIELECTRIC?
Mica serves as a premium insulation as also a dielectric material, with its exceptional stability and performance in...
WHAT IS DISPLACEMENT CURRENT?
Normally a current through a capacitor is explained in terms of dipole movement in dielectric. However, when dealing...
