  2. Successive-approximation ADC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Successive-approximation_ADC

    After a brief sampling period, the capacitors will hold a charge equal to their respective capacitance times V in (and minus the offset voltage upon each of them), so the array holds a total charge of 2C·V in. Hold: The capacitors are then switched to ground. This provides the comparator's negative input with a voltage of −V in.

  3. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.

  4. Marx generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marx_generator

    Marx generator diagrams; Although the left capacitor has the greatest charge rate, the generator is typically allowed to charge for a long period of time, and all capacitors eventually reach the same charge voltage. The circuit generates a high-voltage pulse by charging a number of capacitors in parallel, then suddenly connecting them in series ...

  5. Sample and hold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_and_hold

    A typical sample and hold circuit stores electric charge in a capacitor and contains at least one switching device such as a FET (field effect transistor) switch and normally one operational amplifier. [2] To sample the input signal, the switch connects the capacitor to the output of a buffer amplifier. The buffer amplifier charges or ...

  6. Voltage multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_multiplier

    The term n(n+1) U f represents the sum of voltage losses caused by diodes, over all capacitors on the output side (i.e. on the right side in the example ‒ C 2 and C 4). For example if we have 2 stages like in the example, the total loss is 2+4 = 2*(2+1) = 6 times U f .

  7. Electrolytic capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolytic_capacitor

    The surge voltage is standardized in IEC/EN 60384-1. For aluminium electrolytic capacitors with a rated voltage of up to 315 V, the surge voltage is 1.15 times the rated voltage, and for capacitors with a rated voltage exceeding 315 V, the surge voltage is 1.10 times the rated voltage.

  8. Switched capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_capacitor

    The simplest switched-capacitor (SC) circuit is made of one capacitor and two switches S 1 and S 2 which alternatively connect the capacitor to either in or out at a switching frequency of . Recall that Ohm's law can express the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance as:

  9. Memory cell (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_cell_(computing)

    The storage element of the DRAM memory cell is the capacitor labeled (4) in the diagram above. The charge stored in the capacitor degrades over time, so its value must be refreshed (read and rewritten) periodically. The nMOS transistor (3) acts as a gate to allow reading or writing when open or storing when closed. [37]
