f the transistor is activated (turned ON) to connect the two capacitors, the voltages across the capacitors will tend to equalize over time. The capacitor with the higher voltage will discharge into the capacitor with the lower voltage until their voltages become equal.
Interview question asked to Design Verification Engineers interviewing at Silicon Labs, Safran, SK Hynix and others: When a transistor connecting two parallel capacitors with varying charge voltages is activated, what effect does it have on the voltages?.
