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 […]
