Capacitor Types
A capacitor is a passive component that is used to store electric energy for a short period of time. The ability of the capacitor to hold electric charge is called capacitance and is measured in Farads. Like resistors, capacitors can be arranged in series or parallel combinations, and thus effective capacitance can be varied.
