This reminds of the time a physics teacher marked my answer on a test as wrong... the question was about the time constant. I took into consideration the 5 TC need to reach almost full charge, the teacher was stubborn that you only needed one TC. In the end he had to admit in front of the class I was right but at the price of him giving me attitude the rest of the semester.

For timing circuits I always chose 3 TC (roughly 95%) as the trip point. With all the variants of battery voltages, resistor and capacitor tolerances seemed to give may designs a little more functional design reliability. Then again my efforts was done with graphpaper and pencils. I enjoyed your presentation and graphics. Good job.

Nice explanation of how caps work. Always was curious how they break down and deteriorate in performance from new to aged. When do you pull the plug and replace one? Does it become noticeable if one is being used as a filter in a speaker crossover?. What would be the symptoms in hearing, as opposed to just measuring with a meter? Love all your vids.🤷‍♂️

How will the capacitor charge fully when there is a voltage drop across the resistor? As an example, if it is a 10v supply, with 5V (Vr), how will capacitor reach 10V, when resistor is in series with 5V?

I'm still stuck with an issue from a previous video: why does an empty battery give 1,5V and this have to test it with a load to have the correct reading.

@EngineeringMindset 2 жыл бұрын

The electrons might be built up enough on the plates to give the reading, but it can't sustain a chemical reaction to support a load

@Thamli 2 жыл бұрын

@@EngineeringMindset wouldn't the multimeter discharge it due to closing the circuit and thus creating a load?

@marcfruchtman9473 2 жыл бұрын

@@Thamli No, because a multimeter typically has a massively high impedance (or in the case of DC, that would translate to resistance). Meaning that the battery doesn't see any significant load. A multimeter will only show the available voltage. To really test a battery, it's much better to use a load tester. However, if your multimeter shows a low voltage on the battery, then there is no doubt that the battery is weak. A higher than nominal voltage being shown on the multimeter "hints" that the battery is "ok" but it's only a indicator, since it's not a test under load.

@@lashlarue59 The resistor is limiting the current flow so it slows the charging of the capacitor. If there was no resistor then it would charge instantly - depending on the capacitors farads value and the supply voltage/current.
