Inductors are more like a resistor in series with an ideal inductor, resistors can be inductors as well, and well, capacitors aren’t just simply a capacitance in a package. Little with electronics is ...

Due to current bottlenecks in the procurement of surface-mount ceramic capacitors, designers are looking for substitutes to keep their production lines running smoothly, and to find long-term ...

Choosing a capacitor for reliable performance in today’s automotive electronics requires an examination of several parameters. The performance characteristics of the various capacitor technologies ...

One of the most overlooked, but important performance characteristics of a capacitor used in power circuits is its equivalent series resistance (ESR). ESR determines the capacitor's I 2 R heating ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Capacitors often are connected in parallel in power electronics to decrease high-frequency ripples, current stress, decrease power ...
