Tantalum capacitors offer designers of densely packed, high-performance electronic circuits a reliable high-capacitance solution with stable performance. A historical favorite among design engineers, ...

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 ...

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 ...

Capacitors. These seemingly simple devices are an integral part of virtually every electronic design. It’s been noted that capacitors account for more items in most circuit bills-of-material (BOMs) ...

SplashValve utilizes capacitor charging and discharging to spread power demand, reducing peak current requirements and enabling smaller power supplies. It operates with a 90-degree bi-directional ...

Any engineer knows that capacitors are a fundamental building block in RF/microwave systems. Bypass networks are one example—they require capacitors to bypass ac signals to ground. For such cases, ...

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 ...

Reconstituted mica-paper capacitors provide long life and stable performance for high-voltage circuits. Reconstituted mica-paper capacitors (RMPCs), a refinement of mica-based capacitors that have ...

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 ...

When a crew employed by a local electric utility set out to conduct a DC hi-pot test on a new circuit breaker, the task seemed like nothing more than a routine call. Unfortunately, the events that ...
