Hacks of Electronics
Capacitors are essential passive components used to store and release electrical energy. Among the many types, polarized capacitors hold a special place in electronics because they offer very high capacitance values in a small size something non-polarized capacitors cannot achieve. Polarized capacitors are widely used in DC power supplies, filters, audio circuits, SMPS, motor controllers, […]
Introduction: In electronic circuit design or repair, selecting the right capacitor is critical to performance and reliability. Ceramic and electrolytic capacitors are two of the most commonly used capacitor types, each suited for distinct applications due to their differing structures and electrical characteristics. Understanding their key differences – including capacitance range, frequency response, polarity requirements, […]
