Knowles is extending the range and performance of its Class I Ceramic C0G Series capacitors to better support LLC type DC/DC ...

Capacitors may seem simple enough, but specifying them has grown more complex in recent years. The reason why comes down to freedom of choice. The universe of capacitors for embedded systems ...

Today's engineer is faced with several options when selecting capacitors for use in high reliability switch-mode power supply (SMPS) applications. Each type has advantages and disadvantages that are ...

Ceramic capacitors are rapidly increasing in capacitance and volumetric efficiency (CV/cc) due to higher dielectric constants and smaller dielectric thickness as well as higher layer counts. To ...

Building entire multiple-component devices on single nanowires is a promising strategy for miniaturizing electronic applications. Here we demonstrate a single nanowire capacitor with a coaxial ...

Single-cell EC capacitors can reach 50,000 + farads. Daniel O'Brien, North American Capacitor Corp., Greencastle, Ind. All capacitors consist of two metallic electrode plates separated by an ...

If you build electronic circuits on a regular basis the chances are you will have used capacitors many times. They are a standard component along with the resistor whose values are lifted off the ...
