In this webinar presentation, Würth Elektronik introduces four fundamental capacitor technologies including ceramic capacitors, aluminum capacitors, film capacitors and supercapacitors, discuss its individual advantages and disadvantages and focus on the final application.
Capacitors make up two thirds of all electronic components and there is a huge diversity of technologies which can overwhelm young engineers.
All capacitors store electrical energy in the electrical field created in a dielectric material and they are used for very diverse applications like voltage stability and filtering.
Learn how that works differs between tiny MLCCs and huge electrolytic cells, from pF ratings up to the hundreds of Farads in supercapacitors.
