burn-in-test
Electrical equipment; 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)
Electrical equipment; 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.
capacitance (capacity)
Electrical equipment; 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 ...
capacitive reactance (xc)
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The opposition to the flow of alternating or pulsating current by a capacitor measured in ohms. The non-heating impedance component of the capacitor when AC flows: Xc = ...
capacitor
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
An electrical/electronic part that stores electrical charges. In its simplest form it consists of two conducting surfaces separated by a dielectric.
cathode
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The electrode through which an electric current leaves a liquid, gas, or other discrete part of an electric current; the negatively charged pole of an electrochemical cell.
ceramic capacitor
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
Capacitors with a ceramic dielectric. One type of ceramic capacitor uses a hollow ceramic cylinder as both the form on which to construct the capacitor and as the dielectric ...
