There are two primary capacitor technologies that are most often considered for surface-mount applications: electrostatic and electrolytic. The most common electrostatic types are MLCCs and film capacitors. Due to current bottlenecks in the procurement of surface-mount ceramic capacitors, however, designers are looking for substitutes to keep their production lines running smoothly, and to find long term replacements for hard to find ratings.
