The capacitor auto-discharge module presented in this article is simply a failsafe module that automatically discharges the buffer/filter capacitor in a power supply circuit when its input supply is ...

RoHS-compliant, the XH311HG coin-type capacitor series exhibits the unique quality of large current discharges ranging across 3.3V to 0V. Measuring 3.8 mm x 1.1 mm, the components are compatible with ...

Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance) and series resistance play an ...

Don’t think simple passive components will be trouble-free in your designs. A component as simple as a capacitor can cause you big headaches. I was reminded of this when EDN editor Martin Rowe came ...

Capacitors’ energy density is climbing towards that of batteries by using nanostructured electrodes and new electrolytes. • Supercapacitors store charge when electrolyte ions collect on ...
