Choosing the right capacitor, especially the right tantalum capacitor, is crucial to ensure equipment reliability both at first turn-on and over time. Always consider derating to achieve the best ...

Wet tantalum capacitors now use the intrinsic capability of a proprietary cathode system to provide high capacitance/voltage characteristics, allowing them to be qualified to DSCC 93026. The Next ...

As we have seen in part I and part II of this series [1], there are no inherent wear-out mechanisms in ceramic capacitors. And yes, as covered in part II, the high dielectric Class 2 capacitors (X7R) ...

Choosing a capacitor for reliable performance in today’s automotive electronics requires an examination of several parameters. The performance characteristics of the various capacitor technologies ...
