A snubber circuit limits voltage spikes in power converters. Snubbers are also used in the output of Class-D audio amplifiers for the same reasons (Fig. 1). When the transistor you use to switch the ...
Passive Plus Inc. says the 01005BB104 broadband 100-nF multilayer ceramic capacitors are the industry’s smallest 100-nF broadband parts characterized for RF performance, with cases measuring 16 x 8 x ...
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) ...
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 ...
