https://www.electronics-lab.com/aluminum-polymer-capacitors/
Choosing the right capacitors can make a big difference in the reliability, longevity, cost, and board size of your design. But most engineers don’t know which capacitors to choose for which applications. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with James Lewis from KEMET about the fascinating and surprising world of capacitor […]
They’re ‘Not’ JUST Capacitors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/theyre-not-just-capacitors/
James Lewis from Kemet has made a presentation to address some of misconceptions about capacitors like how you should de-rate capacitors. James said that de-rating depends on the chemistry and configuration of a particularly capacitor. So he started by asking a question: Should capacitors be de-rated 50%? And the answer was not a simple true […]
