Anyone who works with older electronic equipment will before long learn to spot Rifa capacitors, a distinctive yellow-translucent component often used in mains filters, that is notorious for failures.

Artificial intelligence boom is triggering a surge in demand for multilayer ceramic capacitors, report says Demand for multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), tiny electronic components found in ...

Samsung Electro-Mechanics disclosed on May 20, 2026, that it had signed a contract worth 1.557 trillion won to supply silicon ...

Once upon a time I was a real mad scientist. I was into non-conventional propulsion with the idea of somehow interacting with the quantum vacuum fluctuations, the zero point energy field. I was into ...

Samsung Electro-Mechanics has signed a 1.5 trillion won contract to supply silicon capacitors with a global large enterprise, ...

First, let's define a capacitor: It is an electromechanical device capable of storing electrical energy (electrons). It differs from a battery, as a battery produces electrical energy as a by-product ...

When Ceramic Capacitors Go Bad – Aging. Capacitor Aging applies to all Class 2 ceramic capacitors as they are built of ferroelectric materials. C0G types (Class 1) do not exhibit this aging effect, ...

Your phone died. Again. In these scenarios, who among us has not dreamed the dream of a future where our devices charge instantly and last forever. As capacitors—or even more exciting, ultracapacitors ...

The choice of dielectric material significantly influences the performance of film capacitors in high-frequency applications, impacting energy storage density, dielectric strength, and overall ...

There is a general trend of making electronics smaller and with more functionality. This translates into: “Cram it in there,” so naturally designers look to find smaller and smaller parts. What was on ...
