High-reliability capacitors specifically designed for use in harsh, high-temperature power conversion applications— including military, aerospace, and energy applications — are always in demand.

Today's engineer is faced with several options when selecting capacitors for use in high reliability switch-mode power supply (SMPS) applications. Each type has advantages and disadvantages that are ...

Medium- and high-voltage capacitors find widespread use as snubbers or filters in applications, such as switching power supplies for audiovisual and business equipment (computers, modems and fax ...

Taiyo Yuden has squeezed 1,000μF into a 2.5V multi-layer ceramic capacitor only 4.5 x 3.2 x 3.2mm. Called PMK432 BJ108MU-TE, it is aimed at replacing electrolytic capacitors in power supplies for ...

Switched-mode power supplies (SMPS) and low dropout (LDO) regulators are found in electronic systems. Critical SMPS requirements include a stable output voltage with load current, good temperature ...
