Ceramic capacitors are very useful, except where values larger than the micro-farad region are required, so for bulk decoupling applications, other types are needed. Here, we look at the alternatives.

Figure 1.1 shows the test circuit so far: regulators with their ceramic output capacitors, with 20mA of (constant) load current taken out of them; power supply traces with some skin effect modelling, ...

Offer miniaturization and enhanced flexibility to optimize filtering, tuning, decoupling or ESD-protection ... electrostatic discharge (ESD) rated ceramic capacitors in small 0603 EIA case size ...

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 ...

The ESL is the other non-negligible component, which is why high-performance decoupling systems often employ it, as only a small amount of inductance is required and is provided by the capacitor ...
