crest factor
Electronic components; Capacitors
Ratio of peak lamp current to RMS or average lamp operating current.
critical voltage
Electronic components; Capacitors
The voltage at which gas ionizes and corona occurs, preliminary to dielectric breakdown of the gas.
dielectric
Electronic components; Capacitors
The insulating material between the plates of the capacitor. The material is chosen for its ability to permit electrostatic attraction and repulsion to take place across it. The ...
dielectric absorption
Electronic components; Capacitors
That property of an imperfect dielectric whereby there is an accumulation of electric charges within the body of the material when it is placed in an electric field.
dielectric constant
Electronic components; Capacitors
That property of a dielectric which determines the electrostatic energy stored per unit volume for unit potential gradient.
