3.6 SERIES CONNECTION OF CAPACITORS
Practical capacitors come in standard sizes with standard voltage, current and capacitance ratings. Series or parallel connection of such capacitors is almost always required in practical applications in order to meet the application requirements on voltage, current or capacitance rating. Such series or parallel connections of capacitors can often be represented as a single equivalent capacitor for analysis purposes provided we pay careful attention to initial conditions of the capacitors involved in the connection. We look at series connection of capacitors in this section.
