Every now and then you need to make your own capacitor. That includes choosing a dielectric for it, the insulating material that goes between the plates. One dielectric material that I use a lot is ...
Our fundamental passive and inherently analog components—resistors, capacitors, and inductors—are so conceptually simple and easy to describe that we often don’t fully articulate or appreciate the ...
“Supplino is a Quick & Dirty PSU (Power Supply Unit) made with some widely available breakout boards, an Arduino Nano (or an Arduino Nano Every) and a graphical LCD. Power output is given by a DC/DC ...
Awhile back I was speaking to my uncle who worked at IBM fixing power supplies that they created for pcs. I asked him how dangerous it was to put your hands inside the power supply after he tests it ...
http://www.epcos.comCapacitors are one of the most critical of passive components that help fulfill the wide range of voltage and current combinations in power ...
A power supply’s output capacitors - which are typically ceramic capacitors with values between 100nF and 100μF - cost money, take up space, and, in the case of delivery bottlenecks, can be difficult ...
Not all UPS designs are the same. As a result of cost savings in the very competitive UPS market, some designs may not have the highest level of component reliability. Capacitors are an integral part ...
