AD2821A OPERATION MANUAL
Circuit Mode:
Dissipation:
Parallel:
Here parameter with subscript s means the series mode,
parameter with subscript p means the parallel mode.

From the above equations, we can conclude that the conversion
between series and parallel is determined by D
2
2
The value of D
or Q
directly determined the parameter values in
different circuit mode.
Example:
Three capacitors have the same series capacitance: Cs=0.1µF, but
their dissipations are different with each other: D1=0.0100,
D2=0.1000, D3=1.0000. According to the above equation, we can
get their capacitance in parallel mode:
Cp1 = 0.09999 µF
Cp2 = 0.09901 µF
Cp3 = 0.05000 µF
We can find that Cs is almost the same with Cp when D is very
small (D< 0.01), but when D is more than 0.01,Cp and Cs are
different obviously. For example: When D = 0.1,the difference is
1%,but when D = 1,the difference is almost 50%.
