Something Interesting
• Capacitor– At low frequencies (like DC) Open circuit
• Not a surprise, it’s got a gap!
– At high frequencies (“fast”) Short circuit!• Inductor
– At low frequencies Short circuit• Not a surprise, it’s just a wire really
– At high frequencies Open circuit!• Sometimes this can help you with your
intuition on the circuit’s behaviour. 14
