When a capacitor is charged by connecting it directly to a power supply, there is very little resistance in the circuit and the capacitor seems to charge instantaneously. This is because the process occurs over a very short time interval. Placing a resistor in the charging circuit slows the process down. The greater the values of resistance and capacitance, the longer it takes for the

If a resistor is connected in series with the capacitor forming an RC circuit, the capacitor will charge up gradually through the resistor until the voltage across it reaches that of the supply voltage. The time required for the capacitor to be fully charge is equivalent to about 5 time constants or 5T. Thus, the transient response or a series

The capacitor charges through both resistors but only discharges through R2, consequently, the high interval is longer than the low interval. I am having trouble understanding the purpose of R1 here, won''t removing it make the charge and discharge times equal, effectively making it a 50% duty cycle?

A capacitive power supply or capacitive dropper is a type of power supply that uses the capacitive reactance of a capacitor to reduce higher AC mains voltage to a lower DC voltage.

The Effective Impedance (Z), Rectance (X) and the mains frequency (50 – 60 Hz) are the important parameters to be considered while selecting the capacitor. The reactance (X) of the capacitor (C) in the mains frequency (f) can be calculated using the formula:
When it is connected to a voltage supply charge flows onto the capacitor plates until the potential difference across them is the same as that of the supply. The charge flow and the final charge on each plate is shown in the diagram. When a capacitor is charging, charge flows in all parts of the circuit except between the plates.
After a period equivalent to 4 time constants, ( 4T ) the capacitor in this RC charging circuit is said to be virtually fully charged as the voltage developed across the capacitors plates has now reached 98% of its maximum value, 0.98Vs. The time period taken for the capacitor to reach this 4T point is known as the Transient Period.
Power supply capacitors enable the smoothing of rectifier outputs through energy storage. A smoothing capacitor bank is often referred to as the bulk capacitance. The energy stored in the bulk capacitance becomes the input to the regulator pass element. Linear power supplies also employ a capacitor at the output of the regulator.
The capacitor will charge when the voltage of the square wave is Vs; the capacitor will discharge when the voltage of the square wave is zero. The oscilloscope traces of the charging and discharging of the capacitor are also shown in Figure 3.
When the switch is closed the time begins at t = 0 and current begins to flow into the capacitor via the resistor. Since the initial voltage across the capacitor is zero, ( Vc = 0 ) at t = 0 the capacitor appears to be a short circuit to the external circuit and the maximum current flows through the circuit restricted only by the resistor R.
A capacitor consists of two parallel conducting plates separated by an insulator.
