A. The series Series
As barriers, a series capacitor can diklasifikasikanmenjadi two configurations namely, series and parallel, but the rules are different and even opposite of the rule resistor.
Equivalent capacitor (total / replacement of a series of four series can be calculated as follows:
Figure 3.17 Circuit Series Capacitors
Because of the magnitude of the current in a series circuit together in each capacitor in accordance with the laws of Kirchoff, it is thus the amount of charge that flows is the same so the charge in C1, C2 and so we call it the Q1, Q2, and so will be equally great: Q1 = Q2 = Q3 = Q4. Total potential difference on the fourth capacitor is none other than the amount of the potential difference of each capacitor, namely:
U = U1 + U2 + U3 + U4
Because of the relationship: U = Q / C
So that the total voltage can be written as follows:
Since the charge on each capacitor is the same, so that the quantity of the capacitor equivalent / total for the series circuit, namely:
Two circuits Series Capacitors
To clarify the above discussion, the following reviews again a series circuit of two capacitors, with a more detailed illustration.
Figure 3.18 Series of Series Capacitors
In the capacitor series circuit following provisions apply:
the charge on each capacitor is the same, which is equal to the charge on the capacitor replacement qs = q1 = q2 = ….
The potential difference across the ends of the capacitor replacement is equal to the amount of potential difference ends of each capacitor V s = V 1 + V 2 + ….
The amount of capacity replacement capacitor series circuit of several capacitors can be calculated as follows:
V s = V 1 + V 2 + ….
because qs = q1 = q2 = ….
then:
B. The series of Parallel Capacitors
In a parallel circuit capacitor berlakuk the following conditions:
The potential difference of each capacitor is the same, which is equal to source potential Vp = V1 = V2 = ….
The load capacitor replacement equal to the charge of each capacitor qp = q1 + q2 ….
To determine the replacement of large-capacity capacitor parallel arrangement of several capacitors CP can be calculated
qs = q1 + q2 + ….
VpVp = C1V1 + C2V2 + … .. because -> Vp = V1 = V2 = ….
Then -> Cp = C1 + C2 + ….
