Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

Because of their high ESL compared to ceramic, tantalum capacitors are not the optimum choice for high frequency decoupling. Paralleling tantalum capacitors for bulk capacitance and ceramic for high ...

The use of ceramic capacitors in the output filter of switching converters is gaining popularity due to their low cost, small size and low equivalent series resistance (ESR). Technical advances in ...
