Ceramic capacitors are small, they don’t leak, they’re convenient, but they are downright strange. Certain types of caps will lose their capacitance depending on the voltage they’re operating at. If ...

For the makers who need to construct their own capacitors, you must choose a dielectric for it, otherwise known as the material that goes between the plates. One popular material is paraffin wax that ...

Capacitors are essential components in electronics, primarily used for bypassing and decoupling. Depending on the capacitor type and its application, it is prone to aging and failure. Detecting a ...

Ever wonder what goes on inside of an electrolytic capacitor? Nick Visic from AiSHi Capacitors shows how these popular capacitors work in this tear-down video from DesignCon. The screw terminal ...
