The four basic capacitor types. The key parameters involved in selecting the right capacitor for automotive designs. Advantages and limitations of electrolytic and electrostatic capacitors. Choosing a ...

I am sure you have often heard analog design described as an art. This statement is especially true when dealing with radio frequencies. However, is it true when dealing with analog “baseband” type ...

New manufacturing process increases the maximum operating temperature of SPA capacitors from 105 degrees to 125 degrees celcius, extending life to more than 10 years. The new, 125°C, solid polymer ...

Reconstituted mica-paper capacitors provide long life and stable performance for high-voltage circuits. Reconstituted mica-paper capacitors (RMPCs), a refinement of mica-based capacitors that have ...

In a circuit, capacitors help to steady the flow of electrical current — absorbing surges and providing temporary power when necessary — but their size has been a limiting factor in the development of ...
