My current long-term project (5 years and counting…) uses a capacitor very much like the one in the article. Here’s a puzzle for you: Suppose one side of the capacitor in the video is grounded.

Adding three 0.015 µF ceramic capacitors in parallel with the three tantalum and five 0.15 µF capacitors results in lower target impedance, while managing the resonant peak at 30 MHz.

Bonus–capacitor paralleling tips. When paralleling capacitors to get a larger ripple current rating, you have to be careful that the current is balanced in the parallel capacitors to prevent selective ...

Coming from an IT background to an AM transmitter site might leave you with a world of questions. Mark Persons explains the basics.

It is always better to use many small parallel capacitors than one large one. This is because the equivalent series inductance does not vary significantly with capacitance. The parallel bypass paths ...

Shrinking qubits for quantum computing with atom-thin materials Using 2D materials, researchers have built superconducting qubits that are a fraction of previous sizes, paving the way for smaller ...
