Engineers designing power electronics find that capacitors are needed for several functions, from energy storage to filters and decoupling. Different capacitor types are available, that at first sight ...

The report on the global high voltage capacitor market provides qualitative and quantitative analysis for the period from 2017 to 2025. Read the full report: https ...

Ceramic capacitors are small, they don’t leak, they’re convenient, but they are downright strange. Certain types of caps will lose their capacitance depending on the voltage they’re operating at. If ...

This tutorial explains how ceramic capacitor type designations, such as X7R and Y5V, imply nothing about voltage coefficients. Engineers must check the data to know, really know, how a specific ...

Over the last 40 years, a series of misconceptions regarding mica capacitor applications has led novice users to consistently over-derate wound or rolled mica/epoxy dielectric capacitors. The mined ...

Lightweight, small-size, and high-power-density power converter systems, which use only switches and capacitors in their power stage, have no need for transformers or inductors in their design. This ...

Dialog Semiconductor has announced a 10A switched-capacitor voltage divide-by-two, that operates at up to 98% efficiency, hitting or exceeding 95% at 10A. Called DA9313, it can deliver over 50W from ...

Empower Semiconductor, a leading developer of integrated voltage regulators (IVRs), has unveiled the latest and largest silicon capacitor in its ECAP product family for high frequency decoupling.

Kemet is aiming at fast-switching wide bandgap semiconductor (GaN or SiC) power supplies with high-voltage multi-chip ceramic capacitor assemblies. The parts, branded ‘KC-Link with Konnekt’, feature ...
