Morphology
The phrase is a straightforward modifier–head compound: a 'bypass' (something that diverts or provides an alternate path) + 'condenser' (capacitor), so a learner who knows both constituents can infer it is a capacitor used to provide a bypass path. Although the full technical nuance (e.g. low‑impedance path for high‑frequency signals) is specialized, the basic function is compositionally clear from the parts.
Etymology
Bypass condenser may come from a simple picture: a bypass is a small road that lets noisy traffic go around a quiet house, and condenser is an old word for a 'capacitor', a part that lets quick electric signals pass. So a bypass condenser gives a path for electrical 'noise' to go around sensitive parts of a circuit, keeping them calm.
