The concept of using supercapacitors (also known as ultracapacitors, supercaps, etc.), and replacing the batteries in portable micropower applications, 1 is gaining momentum. In fact, it has become ...

Capacitors. These seemingly simple devices are an integral part of virtually every electronic design. It’s been noted that capacitors account for more items in most circuit bills-of-material (BOMs) ...

By their very nature, power factor correction capacitors are special devices that operate close to their dielectric breakdown limits — time, temperature, and peak voltage, all of which contribute to ...

Tantalum capacitors offer designers of densely packed, high-performance electronic circuits a reliable high-capacitance solution with stable performance. A historical favorite among design engineers, ...

Advancements in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) technologies necessitate deploying an increased number of integrated circuits (ICs) within vehicle systems. This ...

Data loss is a concern in telecom, industrial and automotive applications where embedded systems depend on a consistent supply of power. Sudden power interruptions can corrupt data during read and ...

It’s one thing to create your own relay-based computer; that’s already impressive enough, but what really makes [DiPDoT]’s ...

Built on the Ultra Series solid dielectric vacuum switch platform, Trinetics UltraVac single-phase capacitor switches provide dielectric strength in a compact design. Aug. 17, 2010 Built on the Ultra ...

SplashValve utilizes capacitor charging and discharging to spread power demand, reducing peak current requirements and enabling smaller power supplies. It operates with a 90-degree bi-directional ...

When you're editing 4K videos or running high-resolution AAA games on your laptop, it's easy to overlook the components working quietly in the background to keep everything running smoothly. Modern ...

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6981) (ISIN: JP3914400001) has announced the new GCM21BE71H106KE02 multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) has entered mass production. The device is the world's ...
