High and stable capacitor values that are not significantly affected by applied voltage Higher ESR and DCL than ceramics Good mechanical strength to withstand mounting and board flexure No ...

The capacitor auto-discharge module presented in this article is simply a failsafe module that automatically discharges the buffer/filter capacitor in a power supply circuit when its input supply is ...

Apply a voltage than increases or decreases linear in time to the test capacitor. In practice this is achieved by a triangular waveform. Measure the current flow through the capacitor. Ideally the ...

Although multilayer ceramic capacitors have been used to replace film capacitors, particularly as C0G-profile parts are almost completely insensitive to temperature, they often demand circuit changes.

MALVERN, PA-- (Marketwired - Apr 4, 2013) - Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. ( NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new high-performance metallized polypropylene film snubber capacitor.
