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 ...

Due to current bottlenecks in the procurement of surface-mount ceramic capacitors, designers are looking for substitutes to keep their production lines running smoothly, and to find long-term ...

Vintage computer hardware can fail in a variety of fascinating ways, with [Bits und Bolts] dealing with an interesting failure mode, in the form of degraded MLCC capacitors on Voodoo 2 graphics cards.

The rule of thumb to use a 0.1-µF capacitor on the power pin of a semiconductor device is rapidly fading away. Semiconductor products of today have multiple power pins and voltages. But, it is more ...
