Although advancements in dielectric materials and fabrication processes have improved integrated capacitors, chip designers still depend on board-level devices to support virtually all ICs. Primary ...

There is a general trend of making electronics smaller and with more functionality. This translates into: “Cram it in there,” so naturally designers look to find smaller and smaller parts. What was on ...

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 high ...

Power system designers are constantly under pressure to attain larger power densities and improved conversion efficiencies, whether it is for data servers for the internet of things or data centers.

Medium- and high-voltage capacitors find widespread use as snubbers or filters in applications, such as switching power supplies for audiovisual and business equipment (computers, modems and fax ...
