Learn how to optimize decoupling capacitors for the best cost vs. performance using flat target impedance design methods.
Impedance peaks caused by parallel L-C resonances in the power distribution network (PDN) are potential sources of power rail ripple and increased EMI. Bulk capacitors must be selected to ensure power supply stability while high-frequency decoupling must ensure...
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are perhaps some of the earliest used and most well-known capacitors. The ripple current and space-saving benefits of aluminum electrolytic capacitors are ideal for automotive applications and very high-temperature conditions – up to 165°C.
In this webinar, KEMET’s Austin Finley (Associate Technical Product Manager) looks into the...
KEMET’s new CAS series SMD safety certified MLCCs are offered with case sizes of 1808, 1812, 2211 and 2220. Their small footprints reduce required board real estate, allowing designers to deliver more compact designs with higher capacitance.
CAS series capacitors have a 250 VAC rating, support 2.5 kV and 5 kV impulse voltages and are fully...
