Capacitor

Capacitors are components that can store electrical pressure (voltage) for periods of time, higher values have more storage. Because of this storage ability they can block unchanging voltage signals and pass fast changing voltages. Capacitors are used for filtering and oscillation circuits. Snap Circuits includes 0.02uF (C1), 0.1uF (C2), 10uF (C3), 100uF (C4), and 470uF (C5) capacitors, and a variable capacitor (CV). The variable capacitor can be adjusted from .00004 to .00022uF and is used in high frequency radio circuits for tuning. The whistle chip (WC) also acts like a 0.02uF capacitor to its sound properties.
