FIGURE 1: This electrical schematic diagram shows the cooler’s single-phase, R-134a capacitor start/capacitor run (CSCR) refrigeration compressor motor, and starting relay circuit section. July 6, ...

Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance ...

Troubleshooting single-phase refrigeration compressors requires a technician to have a proficient understanding of capacitors. The start capacitor is one of two types of capacitors that can be found ...

Back in 2006 I wrote about how my friend Alan Martin over at Texas Instruments had a saying: “It’s always a capacitor.” This was based on his observance that there is a lot of test equipment that goes ...
