As the economy continues to change, chances are good that you’re examining every aspect of your business for ways to improve your bottom line. A significant opportunity may be found by taking a close ...

It is easy to dismiss passive components like resistors and capacitors as a boring subject. [James Lewis] of KEMET Capacitors would disagree. He gave a talk about capacitor tech that is both ...

Capacitors store electrical energy and release it when circuits need it. This video explains how they work and why they are used in phones, computers, and many everyday devices. A simple and clear ...

Capacitors are among the simplest of electronic components – in theory – but the practical implementation is becoming more complex, says Christian Merkel. Capacitors are two conducting plates, ...

Individual pieces of graphene have some pretty amazing properties, but finding a way to produce bulk materials that make good use of those properties has been rather challenging. Now, researchers have ...

Matching several capacitors, without needing a really precise value, can be accomplished with a "high-tech" laboratory capacitance meter. But this is cumbersome and overkill, and not everyone has one.
