EMIS has expanded its range of FeedThrough components designed to improve high-frequency noise suppression and boost EMC ...

Q. What is the minimum ampacity and minimum size conductor required for a circuit that connects a capacitor to the terminals of a 25 hp, 460VAC, 3-phase, air conditioner induction motor? The rated ...

Würth Elektronik expands its portfolio of components for the mains input: The new series of WCAP-FTY2 film capacitors ...

Another passive two-terminal electrical component is the capacitor. It is formerly known as a condenser and is capable of storing energy in the form of an electrostatic charge that produces a ...

In the quest for smaller, thinner, and more powerful devices, designers need to decrease the size of power passives, inductors, and capacitors. This application note explores paradoxical engineering ...

Tick tracer. Glow meter. Sniffer. They go by many names, but capacitive voltage sensors are all designed to do one thing: detect the presence of voltage in a wire or piece of equipment without ...

Making a capacitor is pretty easy. Just get two conductors close together. The bigger area you can get and the closer you can get them, the bigger the capacitor you can make. [BigClive] found some ...

Maxim Integrated's Bill Laumeister discusses design tradeoffs in power management for hybrid ICs and modules, wiht emphasis on efficiency in passives. Power passives—inductors and capacitors—are big ...
