More and more portable devices now use ceramic capacitors for filtering of dc/dc-converter inputs. Ceramic capacitors offer the advantages of small size, low ESR (equivalent series resistance) and ...

The trend toward e-mobility is finally gaining traction in the market, as more and more vehicles of all kinds are being outfitted with energy efficient and zero emission drives. Besides cars, they ...

KEMET has announced the C4AK high temperature, power film DC-Link capacitor designed specifically for continuous operation up to 1,000 hours at 135℃. The C4AK series joins the C4AU (harsh environment) ...

ISELIN, NJ--(Marketwired - Aug 18, 2016) - TDK Corporation today announced a new EPCOS DC link capacitor that has been specifically designed for the HybridPACK™ 1-DC6 Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor ...

Switched Capacitor (SC) DC-DC converters are DC-DC switching regulators that use only capacitors and switches to transfer charges between the input and the output. This architecture is an alternative ...

Selection of a suitable output capacitor plays an important role in switching-converter designs. “Some 99% of the ‘design’ problems associated with linear and switching regulators can be traced ...

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 ...
