I checked the voltage at the anode and it seems that the capacitor only charges up to 2.5V then stops, but the voltage at the gate is 2.75V, so I believe the anode voltage is not high enough to allow current through the PUT. I checked the capacitor in a circuit by itself and it does fully charge, but not in the circuit with the PUT.
View moreThe capacitor charges when connected to terminal P and discharges when connected to terminal Q. At the start of discharge, the current is large (but in the opposite direction to when it was charging) and gradually falls to zero. As a capacitor discharges, the current, p.d and charge all decrease exponentially. This means the rate at which the current, p.d or charge

The capacitor is not charging to 5 V even when connected to a power bank without using any resistor and without any load at the output. Is a resistor always needed if we want to use a capacitor? Is a load always needed and will a capacitor only then start conducting?
As a result the current in the circuit gets gradually decreased. When the voltage across the capacitor becomes equal and opposite of the voltage of the battery, the current becomes zero. The voltage gradually increases across the capacitor during charging.
The charging of a capacitor is not instant as capacitors have i-v characteristics which depend on time and if a circuit contains both a resistor (R) and a capacitor (C) it will form an RC charging circuit with characteristics that change exponentially over time.
Assume the capacitor is initially uncharged. When the switch is pressed, the capacitor behaves like a short circuit since there is no voltage across it. The charge starts to accumulate, and the current in the circuit is limited only by the resistance R. So, the initial current is V/R.
Capacitor Charging Definition: Charging a capacitor means connecting it to a voltage source, causing its voltage to rise until it matches the source voltage. Initial Current: When first connected, the current is determined by the source voltage and the resistor (V/R).
