Capacitor in a sentence as a noun

If they'd just use a flux capacitor, they could use a static manifold instead.

Lucky for me, I had an o-scope and was able to trace to a capacitor that had shorted in the 5 volt path.

They mean charge a phone that has one of their batteries, which is similar to a super-capacitor.

At least in automotive world, polymer film capacitors are used for this purpose.

I ended up finding a capacitor that was a bit bent, so I straightened it out with my fingers and, viola!

It is just as simple as put the LED in parallel, if you want it to stay on for a "little while" put a capacitor in circuit too.

It is impossible to make a capacitor without some inductance and a little bit of leakage.

I can't help but notice that the region occupied by the memristor is what would be best described as a 'flux-capacitor'.

But when we corrected that problem, and it was only one capacitor that had to be added to each of those three channels, I mean, Geoff's face just lit up !

Not having any experience soldering, I would have been crushed if I had experienced the failure of a capacitor.

Thus creating a ****** 'super capacitor' [1] that you would charge up by rubbing it, which could then power a piezo electric vibrator.

Normally a utility will install capacitor banks to adjust the voltage.

I survived for a year after the housing bust on $6,000 I made flipping PowerPC iMacs that were suffering from the bulging capacitor issue that’s been plaguing electronics.

The reason why polymer film is preferred is that when ceramic capacitors fail, they do so catastrophically in much the same way as a ceramic dinner plate shatters.

Cable modems and other RF equipment operate at very high frequencies by definition, and tantalum & electrolytic capacitors with long leads are ineffective at these high frequencies.

If he really wanted to improve the RF performance of the circuit, he would have been better off adding more low-value, surface-mount ceramic capacitors in parallel with the pre-existing ones to help with the high-frequency decoupling, where it counts in an RF circuit.

I think it's much better to think of a capacitor as a spring:* they store energy;* they can release energy quickly;* when put in parallel they get stronger;* when put in series they get weaker;* the RCL circuit differential equation is the same differential equation as the damped harmonic oscillator.
