Fig. 1 is the flow chart of steps according to the capacitor measuring method of the embodiment of the invention, and this kind measuring method is applicable to the test circuit of Fig. 2, to measure the capacitance of capacitor in this test circuit.Wherein, it should be noted that the measuring method that the present invention proposes, do not exceed with the capacitor of measuring in the test circuit shown in Figure 2.Below about the two cooperation explanation, only as the usefulness of explaining technology contents demonstration of the present invention.Any those skilled in the art are when being applied to measure the capacitance of testing capacitor in other test circuit according to summary of the invention of the present invention, with purpose and the advantage that realizes that the present invention is correlated with voluntarily.
According to embodiments of the invention; As shown in Figure 2; Test circuit 100 comprises power supply module 10, discharge resistance 12, switch element 14 and detection record module 16; Wherein power supply module 10 is in order to provide a power supply Vin, and switch element 14 is connected between power supply module 10, discharge resistance 12 and the capacitor 18.Switch element 14 also optionally switches between contact A and the contact B, to electrically connect capacitor 18 to power supply module 10 or discharge resistance 12.Detection record module 16 is parallel to capacitor 18, with the magnitude of voltage Uc of record capacitor 18.According to embodiments of the invention, test circuit 100 can be in order to the capacitance of Measurement of capacitor 18, its measuring method, and the flow chart of steps of please consulting Fig. 1 in the lump, explanation now is as follows.
At first, shown in Fig. 3 A, switch element 14 connects contact A, to electrically connect capacitor 18 to power supply module 10, makes power supply Vin charge in capacitor 18 (corresponding step S100).Then, detection record module 16 judges whether the magnitude of voltage Uc of capacitor 18 reaches one first scheduled voltage E0 (corresponding step S102), and wherein the first scheduled voltage E0 can be but be not limited to 1.2 volts (V).When the magnitude of voltage Uc of capacitor 18 reaches the first scheduled voltage E0; Power supply module 10 stops to import power supply Vin in capacitor 18; And shown in Fig. 3 B, switch element 14 transfers to connect contact B, so that capacitor 18 is electrically connected to discharge resistance 12; In this, detection record module 16 records one discharge starting time point T0 (corresponding step S104 and S106).
Following in this situation, discharge resistance 12 forms a discharge loop with capacitor 18.Then according to following formula:
U c+iR=0;
Wherein R is the resistance value of discharge resistance 12, and i is the electric current of discharge resistance 12 of flowing through; And

wherein C is the capacitance of capacitor 18, and dt (or claiming Δ t) is the time interval behind the distance discharge starting time point T0.
When Δ t=0 (promptly corresponding discharge starting time point T0), the magnitude of voltage Uc of capacitor 18 is the first scheduled voltage E0, can solve thus:
U 0 = E 0 × Exp ( - Δ t RC ) ; And
