Capacitor and Inductor
Capacitor
Capacitor
consists of two or more parallel conductive (metal) plates which are
not connected or touching each other, but are electrically separated
either by air or by some form of a good insulating material such as
waxed paper, mica, ceramic, plastic or some form of a liquid gel as used
in electrolytic capacitors. The insulating layer between a capacitors
plates is commonly called the Dielectric.
Inductor
An inductor is a passive electronic component that storesenergy in the
form of a magnetic field. In its simplest form, an inductor consistsof a
wire loop or coil. The inductance is directly proportional to the
number ofturns in the coil. Inductance also depends on the radius of
the coil and on the type of material around which the coil is wound.
