Final tomorrow...basically know everything necessary for circuit analysis except Capacitors and Inductors.....allowed one page of notes so any help on these two parts would be great.
Capacitors hold a charge and release after an amount of time (nanoseconds). Caps are measured in Farads. They can be polarized or unpolarized. They act as a filter in some circuitry. take for instance a single pole circuit....resistor parallel to a cap...if the cap is grounded, this would be a low pass filter and vise versa with the resistor ( this would be high pass ) Capacitors block DC Voltage. Their reference designator is C
Inductors are short and sweet...they are measured in Henries. Their reference designator is L. They induce the voltage into a circuit. They also produce a phase shift in AC circuitry...thats more detailed though. They carry no resistance.
Oh and like Sgt. wookie said...to find values of mukltiple caps in a circuit....if caps are in series..you add up their individual values and divide by how many there are and you have your total capacitance......and if they're in parallel...you add them up and that total is your total capacitance....
