In less demanding applications, a key factor for selecting a capacitor may be as simple as ensuring that the operating voltage of the capacitor is at least as high as the operating voltage of the ...

KEMET announced the expansion of its radio frequency (RF) and microwave product portfolio to include a new series of Ultra HiQ-CBR Squared Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors. These new devices feature a ...

Ideal capacitors only exist in textbooks. Every real-world capacitor has additional complexity arising from its physical structure. Two plates separated by a dielectric layer are in series with wire ...

Because of their high ESL compared to ceramic, tantalum capacitors are not the optimum choice for high frequency decoupling. Paralleling tantalum capacitors for bulk capacitance and ceramic for high ...

Power system designers are constantly under pressure to attain larger power densities and improved conversion efficiencies, whether it is for data servers for the internet of things or data centers.
