switching capacitor
1Capacitor plague — The capacitor plague (also known as bulging capacitors, bad capacitors, bad caps, popped caps, swollen caps or bloated capacitors) involved the common premature failure of certain brands of electrolytic capacitors used in various electronics… …
2Switching amplifier — A switching amplifier or class D amplifier is an electronic amplifier which, in contrast to the active resistance used in linear mode AB class amplifiers, uses switching mode of transistor to regulate power delivery. The amplifier, therefore,… …
3Capacitor — This article is about the electronic component. For the physical phenomenon, see capacitance. For an overview of various kinds of capacitors, see types of capacitor. Capacitor Modern capacitors, by a cm ruler Type Passive …
4Decoupling capacitor — A decoupling capacitor is a capacitor used to decouple one part of an electrical network (circuit) from another. Noise caused by other circuit elements is shunted through the capacitor, reducing the effect they have on the rest of the circuit.… …
5Electric double-layer capacitor — Maxwell Technologies MC and BC series supercapacitors (up to 3000 farad capacitance) An electric double layer capacitor (EDLC), also known as supercapacitor, supercondenser, electrochemical double layer capacitor, or ultracapacitor, is an… …
6Switched capacitor — is a circuit design technique for discrete time signal processing. It works by moving charges between different capacitors when switches are opened (off) and closed (on). Usually, non overlapping signals are used to control the switches, so that… …
7Variable capacitor — Rotary variable capacitor A variable capacitor (also known as a variable air condenser ) is a capacitor whose capacitance may be intentionally and repeatedly changed mechanically or electronically. Variable capacitors are often used in L/C… …
8Ceramic capacitor — In electronics, a ceramic capacitor is a capacitor constructed of alternating layers of metal and ceramic, with the ceramic material acting as the dielectric. The temperature coefficient depends on whether the dielectric is Class 1 or Class 2. A… …
9Memristor — Type Passive Working principle Memristance Invented Leon Chua (1971) First production HP Labs (2008) Electronic symbol …
10Switched-mode power supply — switched mode power supply. A bridge rectifier B Input filter capacitors C Transformer D output filter coil E output filter capacitors ] A switched mode power supply, switching mode power supply or SMPS, is an electronic power supply unit (PSU)… …
