Capacitors

Main article: Capacitor

The capacitance of the majority of capacitors used in electronic circuits is several orders of magnitude smaller than the farad. The most common subunits of capacitance in use today are the millifarad (mF), microfarad (F), the nanofarad (nF) and the picofarad (pF).

The capacitance can be calculated if the geometry of the conductors and the dielectric properties of the insulator between the conductors are known. For example, the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor constructed of two parallel plates both of area A separated by a distance d is approximately equal to the following, in SI units:Capacitance - Package Tracker - China Tracking Devices For Children


where

C is the capacitance, in farads;

A is the area of overlap of the two plates, in square metres;

r is the relative static permittivity (sometimes called the dielectric constant) of the material between the plates (for a vacuum, r = 1);

0 is the electric constant (0 8.8541012F m1); and

d is the separation between the plates, in metres.

Capacitance is proportional to the area of overlap and inversely proportional to the separation between conducting sheets. The closer the sheets are to each other, the greater the capacitance. The equation is a good approximation if d is small compared to the other dimensions of the plates so the field in the capacitor over most of its area is uniform, and the so-called fringing field around the periphery provides a small contribution. In CGS units the equation has the form:

where C in this case has the units of length.

Combining the SI equation for capacitance with the above equation for the energy stored in a capacitance, for a flat-plate capacitor the energy stored is:

.

where W is the energy, in joules; C is the capacitance, in farads; and V is the voltage, in volts.

Voltage dependent capacitors

The dielectric constant for a number of very useful dielectrics changes as a function of the applied electrical field, for example ferroelectric materials, so the capacitance for these devices is more complex. For example, in charging such a capacitor the differential increase in voltage with charge is governed by:where the voltage dependence of capacitance, C(V), stems from the field, which in a large area parallel plate device is given by = V/d. This field polarizes the dielectric, which polarization, in the case of a ferroelectric, is a nonlinear S-shaped function of field, which, in the case of a large area parallel plate device, translates into a capacitance that is a nonlinear function of the voltage causing the field.Corresponding to the voltage-dependent capacitance, to charge the capacitor to voltage V an integral relation is found:which agrees with Q = CV only when C is voltage independent.By the same token, the energy stored in the capacitor now is given byIntegrating:where interchange of the order of integration is used.The nonlinear capacitance of a microscope probe scanned along a ferroelectric surface is used to study the domain structure of ferroelectric materials.Another example of voltage dependent capacitance occurs in semiconductor devices such as semiconductor diodes, where the voltage dependence stems not from a change in dielectric constant but in a voltage dependence of the spacing between the charges on the two sides of the capacitor.Frequency dependent capacitorsIf a capacitor is driven with a time-varying voltage that changes rapidly enough, then the polarization of the dielectric cannot follow the signal. As an example of the origin of this mechanism, the internal microscopic dipoles contributing to the dielectric constant cannot move instantly, and so as frequency of an applied alternating voltage increases, the dipole response is limited and the dielectric constant diminishes. A changing dielectric constant with frequency is referred to as dielectric dispersion, and is governed by dielectric relaxation processes, such as Debye relaxation. Under transient conditions, the displacement field can be expressed as (see electric susceptibility):indicating the lag in response by the time dependence of r, calculated in principle from an underlying microscopic analysis, for example, of the dipole behavior in the dielectric. See, for example, linear response function. The integral extends over the entire past history up to the present time. A Fourier transform in time then results in:where r() is now a complex function, with an imaginary part related to absorption of energy from the field by the medium. See permittivity. The capacitance, being proportional to the dielectric constant, also exhibits this frequency behavior. Fourier transforming Gauss's law with this form for displacement field:where j is the imaginary unit, V() is the voltage component at angular frequency , G() is the real part of the current, called the conductance, and C() determines the imaginary part of the current and is the capacitance. Z() is the complex impedance.When a parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric, the measurement of dielectric properties of the medium is based upon the relation:where a single prime denotes the real part and a double prime the imaginary part, Z() is the complex impedance with the dielectric present, C() is the so-called complex capacitance with the dielectric present, and C0 is the capacitance without the dielectric. (Measurement "without the dielectric" in principle means measurement in free space, an unattainable goal inasmuch as even the quantum vacuum is predicted to exhibit nonideal behavior, such as dichroism. For practical purposes, when measurement errors are taken into account, often a measurement in terrestrial vacuum, or simply a calculation of C0, is sufficiently accurate. )Using this measurement method, the dielectric constant may exhibit a resonance at certain frequencies corresponding to characteristic response frequencies (excitation energies) of contributors to the dielectric constant. These resonances are the basis for a number of experimental techniques for detecting defects. The conductance method measures absorption as a function of frequency. Alternatively, the time response of the capacitance can be used directly, as in deep-level transient spectroscopy.Another example of frequency dependent capacitance occurs with MOS capacitors, where the slow generation of minority carriers means that at high frequencies the capacitance measures only the majority carrier response, while at low frequencies both types of carrier respond.At optical frequencies, in semiconductors the dielectric constant exhibits structure related to the band structure of the solid. Sophisticated modulation spectroscopy measurement methods based upon modulating the crystal structure by pressure or by other stresses and observing the related changes in absorption or reflection of light have advanced our knowledge of these materials.Coefficients of potentialThe discussion above is limited to the case of two conducting plates, although of arbitrary size and shape. The definition C=Q/V still holds for a single plate given a charge, in which case the field lines produced by that charge terminate as if the plate were at the center of an oppositely charged sphere at infinity.does not apply when there are more than two charged plates, or when the net charge on the two plates is non-zero. To handle this case, Maxwell introduced his "coefficients of potential". If three plates are given charges Q1,Q2,Q3, then the voltage of plate 1 is given byV1 = p11Q1 + p12Q2 + p13Q3 ,and similarly for the other voltages. Maxwell showed that the coefficients of potential are symmetric, so that p12 = p21, etc.Self-capacitanceIn electrical circuits, the term capacitance is usually a shorthand for the mutual capacitance between two adjacent conductors, such as the two plates of a capacitor. There also exists a property called self-capacitance, which is the amount of electrical charge that must be added to an isolated conductor to raise its electrical potential by one volt. The reference point for this potential is a theoretical hollow conducting sphere, of infinite radius, centered on the conductor. Using this method, the self-capacitance of a conducting sphere of radius R is given by:Example values of self-capacitance are:for the top "plate" of a van de Graaf generator, typically a sphere 20cm in radius: 20 pFthe planet Earth: about 0.709 mFElastanceThe inverse of capacitance is called elastance. The unit of elastance is the daraf.Stray capacitanceAny two adjacent conductors can be considered a capacitor, although the capacitance will be small unless the conductors are close together for long. This (often unwanted) effect is termed "stray capacitance". Stray capacitance can allow signals to leak between otherwise isolated circuits (an effect called crosstalk), and it can be a limiting factor for proper functioning of circuits at high frequency.Stray capacitance is often encountered in amplifier circuits in the form of "feedthrough" capacitance that interconnects the input and output nodes (both defined relative to a common ground). It is often convenient for analytical purposes to replace this capacitance with a combination of one input-to-ground capacitance and one output-to-ground capacitance. (The original configuration including the input-to-output capacitance is often referred to as a pi-configuration.) Miller's theorem can be used to effect this replacement. Miller's theorem states that, if the gain ratio of two nodes is 1/K, then an impedance of Z connecting the two nodes can be replaced with a Z/(1-k) impedance between the first node and ground and a KZ/(K-1) impedance between the second node and ground. (Since impedance varies inversely with capacitance, the internode capacitance, C, will be seen to have been replaced by a capacitance of KC from input to ground and a capacitance of (K-1)C/K from output to ground.) When the input-to-output gain is very large, the equivalent input-to-ground impedance is very small while the output-to-ground impedance is essentially equal to the original (input-to-output) impedance.Capacitance of simple systemsCalculating the capacitance of a system amounts to solving the Laplace equation 2=0 with a constant potential on the surface of the conductors. This is trivial in cases with high symmetry. There is no solution in terms of elementary functions in more complicated cases.Capacitance of simple systemsTypeCapacitanceCommentParallel-plate capacitorA: Aread: DistanceCoaxial cablea1: Inner radiusa2: Outer radiusl: LengthPair of parallel wiresa: Wire radiusd: Distance, d > 2al: Length of pairWire parallel to walla: Wire radiusd: Distance, d > al: Wire lengthConcentric spheresa1: Inner radiusa2: Outer radiusTwo spheres,equal radiusa: Radiusd: Distance, d > 2aD = d/2a: Euler's constantSphere in front of walla: Radiusd: Distance, d > aD = d/aSpherea: RadiusCircular disca: RadiusThin straight wire,finite lengtha: Wire radiusl: Length: ln(l/a)References^ The Physics Problem Solver, 1986, Google books link^ Carlos Paz de Araujo, Ramamoorthy Ramesh, George W Taylor (Editors) (2001).
