  2. Ceramic capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_capacitor

    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.

  3. Capacitor types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_types

    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.

  4. Tantalum capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum_capacitor

    The capacitance value specified in the data sheets of the manufacturers is called rated capacitance C R or nominal capacitance C N and is the value for which the capacitor has been designed. Standardized measuring condition for electrolytic capacitors is an AC measuring method with a frequency of 100 to 120 Hz.

  5. Equivalent series resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_resistance

    Capacitors and inductors as used in electric circuits are not ideal components with only capacitance or inductance.However, they can be treated, to a very good degree of approximation, as being ideal capacitors and inductors in series with a resistance; this resistance is defined as the equivalent series resistance (ESR) [1].

  6. LCR meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCR_meter

    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 ...

  7. Capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor

    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 ...

  9. Capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance

    Capacitance is the ability of an object to store electric charge. It is measured by the change in charge in response to a difference in electric potential, expressed as the ratio of those quantities. Commonly recognized are two closely related notions of capacitance: self capacitance and mutual capacitance.
