COC blend dielectric rated 25°C higher than standard film capacitors, enabling more compact DC-link designs for ...

Not all UPS designs are the same. As a result of cost savings in the very competitive UPS market, some designs may not have the highest level of component reliability. Capacitors are an integral part ...

The concept of using supercapacitors (also known as ultracapacitors, supercaps, etc.), and replacing the batteries in portable micropower applications, 1 is gaining momentum. In fact, it has become ...

Advancements in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) technologies necessitate deploying an increased number of integrated circuits (ICs) within vehicle systems. This ...

The ever-increasing trend toward miniaturization and flatness of electronic devices is a given for consumer markets, but now the demand for smaller power circuits has also spilled into industrial and ...

Capacitor manufacturers are looking to offset steep price declines of ceramic capacitors with new designs and technologies. The good news for designers is the myriad of new specialty products that ...

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 ...

Variable capacitors may be useful, but the air gap that provides their capacitance is their greatest weakness. Rather than deal with the poor dielectric properties of air, some high-end variable ...

A power supply’s output capacitors - which are typically ceramic capacitors with values between 100nF and 100μF - cost money, take up space, and, in the case of delivery bottlenecks, can be difficult ...

Built on the Ultra Series solid dielectric vacuum switch platform, Trinetics UltraVac single-phase capacitor switches provide dielectric strength in a compact design. Aug. 17, 2010 Built on the Ultra ...

When you're editing 4K videos or running high-resolution AAA games on your laptop, it's easy to overlook the components working quietly in the background to keep everything running smoothly. Modern ...

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6981) (ISIN: JP3914400001) has announced the new GCM21BE71H106KE02 multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) has entered mass production. The device is the world's ...
