View moreThe charging and discharging cycle of a capacitor is an essential concept to understand its function. When a capacitor is not charged, there will be no potential (voltage) across its plates. Let's take an example of a capacitor circuit without a resistor or resistance.
Instead of the exponential dependence of charging and discharging voltages with time for a resistor-capacitor circuit, a linear time dependence is found when the resistor is replaced by a reverse-biased diode. Thus, well controlled positive and negative ramp voltages are obtained from the charging and discharging diode-capacitor circuits.
When a voltage is placed across the capacitor the potential cannot rise to the applied value instantaneously. As the charge on the terminals builds up to its final value it tends to repel the addition of further charge. (b) the resistance of the circuit through which it is being charged or is discharging.
(Figure 4). As charge flows from one plate to the other through the resistor the charge is neutralised and so the current falls and the rate of decrease of potential difference also falls. Eventually the charge on the plates is zero and the current and potential difference are also zero - the capacitor is fully discharged.
When a capacitor is supplied with DC voltage, it charges at a quite higher rate initially. However, the rate of charging decreases as time passes. Keep in mind that a capacitor can never be fully charged to its maximum capacity as it has an asymptotic charging curve.
The effect of reversal on a particular capacitor varies with the design of the capacitor, the voltage at which it is being operated, the temperature, the pulse repetition rate, and other factors.
