Variation in capacitor characteristics due to dc bias and other effects impact power-supply design and simulation, and their impact becomes greater as designers pursue higher performance and higher ...

Any engineer knows that capacitors are a fundamental building block in RF/microwave systems. Bypass networks are one example—they require capacitors to bypass ac signals to ground. For such cases, ...

Usually marked onto the body of capacitors in the form of alphanumeric characters are the actual values of capacitance, voltage or tolerance. Although the capacitance value may be printed on the body ...

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 ...

Although there are other technologies competing for the same market – most notably polymer and hybrid polymer capacitors – electronics design engineers feel comfortable with electrolytics. They know ...

Occasionally a design requires capacitors that are much closer to being identical in value to one another than the usual tolerance ranges afford. Precision matching of components from parts on hand ...

This is a significant reduction in can size on previous capacitors, said the supplier. The FKS series offers increased capacitance values than previous products. For example, the new 25V 33µF FKS ...

New Yorker Electronics has announced the release of Vishay’s small case size tantalum capacitors offering new low resistance values. Vishay’s T55 and TR3 series of tantalum capacitors provide ...
