6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Capacitor short delay quick break”

How do you calculate a 15 second delay using a capacitor?

The voltage across the resistor will be the supply voltage minus two diode drops or 12-1.4 = 10.6. The resistor value will be the voltage/current = 10.6/0.003 = 3533 or about 3.6K. The capacitor value for a 15 second delay will be 15/3R = 1327 uF. We can use a standard 1000 uF capacitor and increase the resistor proportionally to get 15 seconds.

What is a delay on a circuit?

All these circuits will produce delay ON or delay OFF time intervals at the output for a predetermined period, from a few seconds to many minutes. All the designs are fully adjustable. In many electronic circuit applications a delay of a few seconds or minutes becomes a crucial requirement for ensuring correct operation of the circuit.

How does a capacitor timing circuit work?

Here's a quick guide to how a capacitor timing circuit operates: The main differentiator with our circuit is that with the timer button open, there's no difference in potential between the leftmost (Rl) and middle (Rm) resistor.

What happens when a capacitor is charged and a relay is closed?

The capacitor is charged and the relay is closed when the voltage at the diode anode rises to +12 volts. The circuit on the left is a common collector or emitter follower and has the advantage of one less part since a resistor is not needed in series with the transistor base.

How a transistor is used in a delay timing circuit?

The first circuit diagram shows how a transistors and a few other passive components may be connected for acquiring the intended delay timing outputs. The transistor has been provided with the usual base resistor for the current limiting functions. A LED which is used here just indication purposes behaves like the collector load of the circuit.

What is the time constant of a capacitor?

The time it takes a capacitor to charge fully is a “time constant” called “tau.” Tau = resistance of the circuit (measured in ohms) times the capacitance (measured in farads) This value signifies the amount of time it takes the capacitor to get to 63 percent of its charge value.
