Capacitors behave differently than resistors, where resistors allow a flow of electrons through them directly proportional to the voltage drop, and capacitors oppose changes in voltage by drawing or ...
Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...
When choosing a capacitor for any application, there are a few key characteristics that must be understood in order to analyze its suitability for the circuit. In a simple capacitor equivalent circuit ...
One of the last remaining unshrinkable obstacles blocking the progress of fully integrated, wearable technology is the clunky component that absorbs and disburses stray electricity and converts ...
Workbench contributor and engineer Duke Evans writes that he has repaired many a circuit board trace with bare wire. In his years of circuit board repairs, Duke has also noted that some older ...
New capacitors covering the 5-µF to 60-µF range have been added to the EPCOS line of 4-pin link circuit capacitors operating on voltages from 250 Vdc (180 Vac) to 850 Vdc (350 Vac). The capacitors are ...
To address this challenge, ROHM developed the " BD9xxN1 Series ” LDO regulator (150mA output current) in 2022, incorporating ...
EPCOS has developed a new type of ceramic capacitor to minimize the risk of short circuits if the capacitor is damaged. The product is suitable for applications in which the capacitor is permanently ...
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 ...
