Source sentences:
text: The capacitance of a PN diode between anode and cathode is inversely proportional to the reverse voltage, growing as it approaches zero volts and into forward bias.
text: We know that the capacitance of an electrical capacitor is directly proportional to the area of the plates, as the area of the plates increases the capacitance of the capacitor increases.
text: Generally, the depletion region thickness is proportional to the square root of the applied voltage, and capacitance is inversely proportional to the depletion region thickness.
text: Thus, the capacitance is inversely proportional to the square root of applied voltage.
