This "multi-layer ceramic capacitor" (MLCC) was compact and offered high-capacitance capacitors. [3] The production of these capacitors using the tape casting and ceramic-electrode cofiring processes was a great manufacturing challenge. MLCCs expanded the range of applications to those requiring larger capacitance values in smaller cases.
Since the SEPIC converter transfers all its energy via the series capacitor, a capacitor with high capacitance and current handling capability is required. The fourth-order nature of the converter also makes the SEPIC converter difficult to control, making it only suitable for very slow varying applications.
The capacitance increases with the area A of the plates and with the permittivity ε of the dielectric material, and decreases with the plate separation distance d. The capacitance is therefore greatest in devices made from materials with a high permittivity, large plate area, and small distance between plates.

Electrolytic capacitors offer very high capacitance but suffer from poor tolerances, high instability, gradual loss of capacitance especially when subjected to heat, and high leakage current. Poor quality capacitors may leak electrolyte, which is harmful to printed circuit boards. The conductivity of the electrolyte drops at low temperatures ...
Stray capacitance can allow signals to leak between otherwise isolated circuits (an effect called crosstalk), and it can be a limiting factor for proper functioning of circuits at high frequency. Stray capacitance between the input and output in amplifier circuits can be troublesome because it can form a path for feedback, which can cause ...
Greater capacitance per volume, since there are no airgaps between plates and mica, the conducting surfaces can be thinner. No clamping mechanism is needed. They are sometimes informally referred to as mica capacitors. Any modern reference to mica capacitors can be assumed to mean these, unless pre-World War II equipment is being discussed.
An LCR meter is a type of electronic test equipment used to measure the inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) of an electronic component. [1] In the simpler versions of this instrument the impedance was measured internally and converted for display to the corresponding capacitance or inductance value. Readings should be reasonably ...
