"C is for Capacitor" - Circuit Playground Episode 3

[@gaiifafa1306]

I'm a 22 yr old college senior and this is probably the best lesson I've had so far on capacitors, capacitors make so much more sense now; does that mean I have the mental capacity of an elementary school student?

[@DavidARayMusic]

I think a lot of people with electronic engineering degrees don't fully understand capacitors. So don't feel too bad.

[@xtheslipknotmaggotx]

+GaiiFAFA Maybe cuz they teach you advanced circuits and calculations, but they do not teach what the heck those circuits are used for.

[@twistedyogert]

+GaiiFAFA It took me awhile to figure them out how they work.

[@tree43781]

Me to

[@adafruit]

It's here! C IS FOR CAPACITOR! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qarCeGSljreEo68

[@ChrisHobbs42]

Just sat and watched the first three of these with my girls (8 and 5). They were enthralled! Keep 'em coming!

[@sumoluhead]

"I'm fine, and urself?" "All systems are fully operational"~~>O

[@ThePedrolic]

A very creative way to teach young people(or anyone for that matter) I like it.

[@nishigupta6280]

Awesome way to teach what capacitors are !!! thanx adafruit

[@vatolsk]

man, this is wicked adorable.

[@BobbiZiin]

Interesting and informative works here...., thank you Ada....

[@samweiss7979]

Glad you could make another one. Good job

[@d2words]

Lovely video!!, so nice approach to explain what capacitor does.

[@Magoonski]

My middle school and high school students will probably kill me but I can't wait to show them this! Seriously, I'm feeling so nostalgic now because of the puppets.

[@middleca]

This is too cool! I wish this existed when I was younger!

[@MegaHexboy]

Thank you! The kids (and me) were so excited to see the next episode!

[@vinayseth1114]

6:30 - 'Do your capicators dance?' ...uhm, I don't know if this is appropriate for children anymore lol. :D

[@EvopicsDe]

it's like watching teletubbies on steroids. I like it :)

[@hassaan22]

awesome video! looking forward for more!

[@deenalshah8315]

thank you soooooo much.... this is short n complete informative... amazing job..!!

[@fredbloggs2417]

luv the way robot wobbles his head when he walks .

[@cucciolo182]

6:19 loooooooool . You should definitely be on TV

[@laneboysrc]

Thanks a lot for making yet another Circuit Playground! It helps me tremendously getting my 7 year old into electronics :)

[@opengadgets]

wow, these are really great videos, very easy to understand for beginners, nice job!!

[@longshot7601]

Thank you for these. I wish there were things like this around when I was a kid. It would have made my entry into electronics MUCH easier.

[@twistedyogert]

That song is extremely catchy.

[@artblack01]

This show is tripping me out man!

[@artblack01]

+Ghost Naughty no, like a battery the charge would slowly dissipate over time. ever not use a car for a long time and have to recharge or jump start it.

[@artblack01]

+Ghost Naughty yes you can get shocked and all electronics use capacitors.

[@artblack01]

Ghost Naughty lithium metal polymer are rechargeable batteries, where ions move between the anode and the cathode, using an intercalated lithium compound or metallic lithium as the electrode material. Capacitors are both inside and outside integrated circuits on the ciruit (mother) board of a computer or other electronic device.... some are large some are tiny.... A capacitor is a two-terminal, electrical component. Along with resistors and inductors, they are one of the most fundamental passive components we use. You would have to look very hard to find a circuit which didn't have a capacitor in it. electronics.howstuffworks.com/capacitor.htm

[@artblack01]

Ghost Naughty Google is your friend.

[@evans7771]

This is great! Thanks a ton

[@vikdeville601]

You guys are great!!!

[@leanandlearntocode4969]

This is so cool

[@mattroh7248]

I love how cappy just slide out of the pcb

[@wamplersdl]

My kids love it.

[@PilotPlater]

I dont know what im watching but its great

[@JovenAlbarida]

It like sesame street for electronics yeah!

[@vileguile4]

Fantastic!!!

[@annarobinson1994]

My sister loves these videos and she's 10 and I am 8 I love it to

[@shaikhzoya2002]

Thanks a lot.

[@mikie9191]

love it.. more more more! :)

[@mattamiller]

Where's episode 1 and 2?

[@brianhawes1974]

What a great generation we would have if kids were raised on this show instead of the crap that's on tv now.

[@JohnnyFPriv]

More on S = Supercaps please! :D

[@KidsPlanetTV]

That was cool enough

[@RolandHoferJesaia714]

Very nice idea. May i give you a tipp. when talking to your robot - dont look in the camera, it dosent look good. but the hole storytelling is realy very nice. thanks.

[@wiinick90]

That was fun

[@tmdrake]

Very cute...tech dwaggie approves!

[@baez0r]

I

[@danihurin]

seria genial en español

[@danon-theautisticmaker8112]

cappy was danceing so adabot was doing a joke saying cappy was danceing and singing

[@IfItAintBrokeStillFixIt]

Hey "C" is for Colin... bring him out

[@youfox415]

Ok what are you doing adafruit industries? I showed this to my 9-month-old daughter, coincidentally named Ada, and she pooped so draw your own conclusions.

[@JY-co1hc]

she was just doing what a capacitor does - dumping her load

[@raccoonnyc]

Ms. Fruit is cute!

[@NoorquackerInd]

It still doesn't explain why they can be recharged when all the electrons are balanced!

[@ALZulas]

When you get to Z will you release a Blueray of the whole alphabet of videos?

[@Flaviocamisao]

Hi ! Will you make more chapters ? It´s very good ! Thanks very much.

[@KaletheQuick]

Holy shitballs this is amazing. And lady Ada is cute to death!!!

[@twistedyogert]

I wish I was a Capacitor, then I'd have sweet dance moves!----l l-----

[@twistedyogert]

Ghost Naughty Yes, capacitors are found n many circuits including computers. I don't know the answer to your first question.

[@twistedyogert]

Ghost Naughty most likely the capacitors are for signal processing or power smoothing

[@NicodemusT]

Just me or does Ladyada get hotter and hotter?

[@rolandagosta4140]

🤣🤣

[@BrittArmenta]

:-)

[@ryanodine4753]

Fake robot. Obviously a puppet.

[@anlozdemir8404]

wow. You are someone who pays a lot of attention to details. Congrats Einstein 🤣🤣
