Malvern, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has extended the capabilities of its 140 CRH series of surface-mount aluminum capacitors to offer very high capacitance values and ripple currents, aimed at ...

Myrtle Beach, S.C. — AVX Corp. has developed a new niobium oxide multi-anode (NOM) capacitor that delivers low equivalent series resistance (ESR), high capacitance, and high ripple current for ...

[Dr Ali Shirsavar] from Biricha Digital runs us through How to Select the Perfect Output Capacitor for Your Power Supply. Your switching-mode power supply (SMPS) will require an output capacitor both ...

Because of their high ESL compared to ceramic, tantalum capacitors are not the optimum choice for high frequency decoupling. Paralleling tantalum capacitors for bulk capacitance and ceramic for high ...

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 ...

Recent advances in polymer-cathode technology and improvements in tightening the tantalum supply-chain are allowing more designers to choose polymer tantalum capacitors as alternatives to traditional ...
