Here's how to reduce the effect of capacitor switching on your power system Last month's article discussed exactly what happens when electric utilities switch shunt capacitors: power system components ...

Although shunt capacitors offer several advantages at all voltage levels, those advantages come at a price. Not only must you purchase, install, and maintain capacitor equipment, you must be able to ...

For EMI filtering and noise attenuation, California-based Johanson Dielectrics is offering a range of novel multi-layer ceramic devices that combines two balanced shunt capacitors with mutual ...

In today's world of increasing electrical noise, higher-speed logic, and more-sensitive circuits, the need for high-frequency noise filtering is especially critical. Noise can enter a circuit through ...

Bypass capacitors are everywhere in power distribution networks. If you think in the time domain, you may say that bypass capacitors store and supply charge on demand to the loads. If you think ...

Members can download the PDF ebook. We all know that capacitors have a shunt resistance (leakage) and that leakage resistance should be pretty easy to measure, right? Wrong! I've measured a lot of ...
