Voltage Across Capacitor: What It Is and How It Works
Voltage across a capacitor is the electric potential difference between the two plates of a capacitor. It’s directly proportional to the charge stored on the capacitor and inversely proportional to its capacitance. This voltage is a crucial parameter in many electronic circuits. When the voltage across a capacitor exceeds its rated voltage, it can lead to dielectric breakdown and damage to the component.
