blocking
Electronic components; Capacitors
A situation where Direct Current (DC) is kept from a circuit element due to the high series impedance of a capacitor.
breakdown
Electronic components; Capacitors
A disruptive discharge through insulation. If plain dielectric films are used, this is usually catastrophic. If metallized films are used, self-healing should maintain the ...
breakdown voltage
Electronic components; Capacitors
The voltage at which the insulation between two conductors will break down. This voltage should be at least 50% ~ 100% greater than the capacitor's rated voltage.
burn-in-test
Electronic components; Capacitors
Test designed to simulate conditions a product would encounter in actual operation. To shorten the duration of the test, it is conducted at maximum temperature and greater than ...
bypass (de-coupling)
Electronic components; Capacitors
The use of a capacitor to prevent the AC portion of a signal from a circuit element via a low impedance path in parallel with the circuit element.
Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
Electronic components; Capacitors
Group that generates product performance and/or safety standards for many Canadian industries.
capacitance
Electronic components; Capacitors
That property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed ...
