So I am a bit confused here.
Can someone help me understand caps in series from a transient perspective.
I know how to combine the values and such obviously and the equivalent capacitance.
However what is really going on here at say t = 0 when the caps are in the fully discharged state.
and we give the caps something simple like a step response
Obviously you would see the normal step response of a capacitor if it were just a single cap.
Lets call it C1 and C2 with C2 being reference to ground. The node in the middle called node 1
When you apply a voltage to C1 which is now references to C2 not ground because its in series what is going on here.
I am trying to understand the point of balance resistors
The caps from a time domain respective can not simply just act as a bulk capacitance. Since they are in series C1 delta voltage is not reference to ground but Node 1. So the response has to be governed by what the node 1 voltage is.
