Metal cost volatility is cited in price-increase notices as passive-component hikes spread; MLCC risk shows up first in ...

TDK’s ModCap UHP capacitors feature 200,000-hour lifetimes at 105°C and voltage ratings between 900 and 2,000 V. The high operating temperature solves the weakest link in wide-bandgap (WBG)-based ...

In electrical and electronic engineering, capacitors are fundamental components. They appear across all manner of applications, including power supplies, analogue filters, timing circuits, and energy ...

Look at almost any circuit, and it’s near certain that there will be a capacitor included in it. These two-terminal electrical components rank alongside resistors and inductors as among the most ...

Explore how capacitors enable high-energy pulsed power systems used in defense, medical, scientific, and renewable energy applications. Capacitors are ideal for these systems because they can slowly ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

Abstract: Reducing the root-mean-square (RMS) current through dc-link capacitors is critically challenging in parallel dual-inverter-fed drive systems, as dc-link currents are heavily influenced by ...

As electronics rely more and more on ICs, subtle details about discrete components get lost because we spend less time designing with them. For example, a relay seems like a simple component, but ...
