The flux capacitor is the essential component of Doc Brown's time machine. Without it, time travel isn't possible. Here's how ...

Scientists have developed a novel process to identify a record-breaking material for film capacitors, which are needed for safe, reliable electric vehicles and are used in many energy technologies.

If you build electronic circuits on a regular basis the chances are you will have used capacitors many times. They are a standard component along with the resistor whose values are lifted off the ...

Engineers designing power electronics find that capacitors are needed for several functions, from energy storage to filters and decoupling. Different capacitor types are available, that at first sight ...

The other main capacitor in general use is the electrolytic, split between the aluminium and tantalum families. The electrolytic technology dates back to the end of the 19th Century, when Charles ...

The high-temperature characteristics of Murata capacitors are suitable for automotive electronics, primarily due to their material innovations, structural design, and product features, which can meet ...

Myrtle Beach, S.C. – Under development for two years, AVX Corp.'s microwave single-layer X7S dielectric capacitor (SLC) family employs the company's new Z dielectric, which replaces the Z5U and Y5V ...

Occasionally a design requires capacitors that are much closer to being identical in value to one another than the usual ...

For many of us, the term "robot" still evokes an image of R2D2 or a terminator-style collection of metal parts. But there's no reason to limit our construction materials to hard parts. A number of ...
