A capacitor is a two-terminal device that consists of two conducting bodies separated by a nonconducting material. The material is known as an insulator or a dielectric. The construction of the ...

Capacitors are small devices used to store electric charges and consist of one or more pairs of conductors separated by an insulator. They’re mainly used in energy-storing devices such as televisions, ...

Capacitors are one of the most important parts of electronics and if you're working on DIY projects it's important to know how they work. "C is for Capacitor" is a video from Adafruit that makes it ...

Capacitors are among the simplest of electronic components – in theory – but the practical implementation is becoming more complex, says Christian Merkel. Capacitors are two conducting plates, ...

The four basic capacitor types. The key parameters involved in selecting the right capacitor for automotive designs. Advantages and limitations of electrolytic and electrostatic capacitors. Choosing a ...
