RC Circuit - Complex Impedance

Complex Impedance

The complex impedance, ZC (in ohms) of a capacitor with capacitance C (in farads) is

The complex frequency s is, in general, a complex number,

where

  • j represents the imaginary unit:
  • is the exponential decay constant (in radians per second), and
  • is the sinusoidal angular frequency (also in radians per second).

Famous quotes containing the word complex:

    “Uneducated people are unfortunate in that they do grasp complex issues, educated people, on the other hand, often do not understand simplicity, which is a far greater misfortune.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
