The next time you need a small adjustable capacitor — especially in a lab setting — don’t forget about the gimmick. Be sure to experiment with different kinds of wire if you are trying for ...

However, current dielectric capacitors don't store as much energy as other types of energy storage devices such as batteries. The higher power density of capacitors makes them more attractive for ...

This application note provides a brief theory on the efficiency in SC DC-DC converters and a comparative efficiency analysis between the two types of switched converter architectures using a typical ...
