6 FAQs about [Capacitor stable state]

Is a capacitor a steady state circuit?

The circuit is at steady state when the voltage and the current reach their final values and stop changing. In steady state, the capacitor has a voltage across it, but no current flows through the circuit: the capacitor acts like an open circuit. How do you calculate steady state current in a capacitor? Is a capacitor fully charged in steady state?

Why does a capacitor have a transient state?

The transient state is there because the voltage source was started at phase zero. That's not where it would be in the steady state when the capacitor's instantaneous voltage was zero. Look at the phase shift between the voltage source and the capacitor voltage in the steady state.

Does a capacitor work differently at a phase 0?

@MSKB It does not work any differently at any phase, it's just a capacitor. Your circuit just does not start from a steady state. Same as applying a DC step to a capacitor, it takes time for the circuit to settle to new DC conditions. The transient state is there because the voltage source was started at phase zero.

What happens if a capacitor is not charged?

If we assume that a capacitor in a circuit is not initially charged, then its voltage must be zero. The instant the circuit is energized, the capacitor voltage must still be zero. If there is no voltage across the device, then it is behaving like a short circuit. We call this the initial state. Thus, we have our first rule regarding RC circuits:

Can a capacitor voltage change instantaneously?

When analyzing resistor-capacitor circuits, always remember that capacitor voltage cannot change instantaneously. If we assume that a capacitor in a circuit is not initially charged, then its voltage must be zero. The instant the circuit is energized, the capacitor voltage must still be zero.

Why does a capacitor behave as a short circuit?

This action is not available. When analyzing resistor-inductor-capacitor circuits, remember that capacitor voltage cannot change instantaneously, thus, initially, capacitors behave as a short circuit. Once the capacitor has been charged and is in a steady-state condition, it behaves like an open. This is opposite of the inductor.
