Filter capacitor, decoupling capacitor, bypass capacitor role Filter capacitor, decoupling capacitor, bypass capacitor role Filter capacitor is used in the power rectifier circuit to filter out the AC component. Make the output DC smoother. Decoupling capacitor is used in the amplifier circuit where AC is not needed to eliminate self-excitation and make the amplifier work stably. Bypass capacitor is used when there is a resistor connection, connected to both ends of the resistor to allow the AC signal to pass smoothly. 1. Understanding of the energy storage function of decoupling capacitor 1) Decoupling capacitor is mainly used to remove interference from high frequency such as RF signals, and the interference enters through electromagnetic radiation. In fact, the capacitor near the chip also has the function of energy storage, which is the second. You can think of the total power supply as the Miyun Reservoir. Every household in our building needs water supply. At this time, the water does not come directly from the reservoir, as the distance is too far. When the water comes, we are already thirsty. The actual water comes from the water tower on the top of the building. The water tower actually acts as a buffer. If we look at it microscopically, when high-frequency devices are working, their current is discontinuous and the frequency is very high. There is a distance between the device VCC and the main power supply. Even if the distance is not long, at a high frequency, the impedance Z = i*wL+R, and the inductance of the line will also be very large, which will cause the device to not be supplied with current in time when it needs it. The decoupling capacitor can make up for this deficiency. This is one of the reasons why many circuit boards place small capacitors at the VCC pins of high-frequency devices (a decoupling capacitor is usually connected in parallel to the Vcc pin, so that the AC component is grounded from this capacitor.) 2) The high-frequency switching noise generated by the active device during switching will propagate along the power line. The main function of the decoupling capacitor is to provide a local DC power supply to the active device to reduce the propagation of the switching noise on the board and guide the noise to the ground. 2. The difference between bypass capacitors and decoupling capacitors Decoupling: removes the RF energy that enters the power distribution network from the high-frequency device when the device is switched. Decoupling capacitors can also provide localized DC voltage for the device...
