The pioneering years in the history of capacitors was a time when capacitors were used primarily for gaining an early understanding of electricity, predating the discovery even of the electron.

Vintage electronics and capacitor replacements tend to go hand-in-hand. Why? Because electrolytic capacitors just don’t last, not the way most other components do, anyway. The metal terminal ...

A film capacitor's dielectric determines many different attributes about the device, most importantly its rated voltage. Manufacturers are able to increase a capacitor's rated voltage by using thicker ...

Chip capacitors are passive integrated circuit (IC) components that store electrical energy. Chip capacitors are simply capacitors manufactured as integrated circuit (IC) devices, also known as chips ...

General Motors isn't the only manufacturer that gets to issue a recall today, as Nissan is set to announce a voluntary recall of the 2011 to 2013 Juke due to a fault with the timing chain.

The gradient of this graph is equal to the capacitance of the capacitor. \(C= \frac{Q}{V}\) And the area under the graph is the energy stored by the capacitor.

Organizations seeking city dollars shouldn't be allowed to use taxpayer money to hire public relations firms to help sell requests for new money to the community, city politicians say. The ...
