It used a transistor, a resistor, and a capacitor in the same configuration that Kearns had designed.(該雨刷的晶體管、電阻器和電容器的配置與卡恩斯的設(shè)計(jì)完全相同。)

And he found something missing: a fourth basic circuit element besides the standard trio of resistor, capacitor and inductor.(然后他卻發(fā)現(xiàn)了某些東西：一個(gè)除了由電阻，電容和電感組成的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)三重奏之外的第四個(gè)基本電路元件。)

A sheet containing two layers of nanotubes is a capacitor (each layer ACTS as a plate).(由兩層納米管道的組成的平板就成為了一個(gè)電容器(每一層就如同一個(gè)極板)。)

“And I saw capacitor, resistor, transistor—it was all there, ” he recalls. “Even the great Mercedes had infringed my patents.”(“我看到了電容器、電阻器和晶體管——它們都在”，他回憶說(shuō)，“即使是強(qiáng)大的梅賽德斯也侵犯了我的專利權(quán)。”)

A capacitor is the electrical equivalent of the bucket.(電容器就是吊桶的電子等價(jià)物。)

It could also provide a cellphone battery that would charge in five minutes. That kind of battery is called a capacitor.(這也有可能開(kāi)發(fā)出5分鐘就能充好電的手機(jī)電池，這種電池叫電容器。)

While it is charging, a voltage comparator constantly compares the voltage across the capacitor to a reference voltage.(當(dāng)充電時(shí)，一個(gè)電壓比較器就不斷地將通過(guò)電容器的電壓和一個(gè)參照電壓進(jìn)行比較。)

That sounds like a bad electrolytic capacitor in the circuit.(這聽(tīng)起來(lái)像一個(gè)壞的電解電容在電路中。)

The equivalent of the bucket tipping is provided by a transistor which shorts out the capacitor when triggered.(晶體管提供了類似讓吊桶傾倒的作用——每當(dāng)被觸發(fā)時(shí)它就使電容短路。)
