The U-37 family of screw terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitors from United Chemi-Con are offered in capacitance ranges of from 1,5000 to 22,000 microfarads provides high ripple current and long ...

Before Lunar New Year, I had ordered two 3000 F, 2.7 V supercapacitors from China for about $4 each. I don’t actually remember why, but they arrived (unexpectedly) just before the holiday.

The 53D series is a general purpose capacitor with the highest capacitance ratings available for an axial leaded capacitor. The rugged construction has all welds with no pressure points or riveted ...

As we have seen in part I and part II of this series [1], there are no inherent wear-out mechanisms in ceramic capacitors. And yes, as covered in part II, the high dielectric Class 2 capacitors (X7R) ...

Engineers often face design goals with conflicting requirements. For instance, take a design that requires an input capacitor to stabilize the bias voltage and present clean dc power to the device’s ...

Ah, the age old tradition of Dumpster diving! Sometimes we happen to spot something that’s not quite trash, but not quite perfect, either. And when [dzseki], an EEVblog.com forum user, spotted some ...
