Electrical Transients

This chapter explores the response of capacitors and inductors to sudden changes in DC voltage (called a transient voltage), when wired in series with a resistor.

Unlike resistors, which respond instantaneously to the applied voltage, capacitors and inductors react over time as they absorb and release energy.
