Penn State researchers have developed a new high-temperature polymer capacitor that can store four ...
Current capacitors often require dedicated cooling loops to keep them operating within a safe temperature range. If the capacitor itself can withstand the heat of an engine block or a high-voltage ...
Researchers create polymer capacitor surviving 482°F temperatures while delivering four times the energy density of current ...
In the race for lighter, safer and more efficient electronics—from electric vehicles to transcontinental energy grids—one ...
If you search through an electrical engineering textbook, you probably aren’t going to find the phrase “gimmick capacitor” but every old ham radio operator knows about them. They come in handy when ...
In the race to lighter, safer and more efficient electronics — from electric vehicles to transcontinental energy grids — one component literally holds the power: the polymer capacitor. See ...
Once upon a time I was a real mad scientist. I was into non-conventional propulsion with the idea of somehow interacting with the quantum vacuum fluctuations, the zero point energy field. I was into ...
As AI processors continue to increase in complexity and power consumption, ensuring stable and efficient power delivery has ...
Empower has launched three embedded silicon capacitors (ECAPs) for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) processors.

Why are capacitors in every device?

Capacitors store and release energy, helping electronic devices run smoothly and respond quickly. This video shows how they work and why they're found in phones, TVs, and even power supplies. A clear ...
“Our customers are under intense pressure to deliver greater performance with tighter power margins,” said Steve Hertog, Senior Vice President Worldwide Sales, Empower Semiconductor. “These new ECAPs ...
As we have seen in part I and part II of this series [1], there are no inherent wear-out mechanisms in ceramic capacitors. And yes, as covered in part II, the high dielectric Class 2 capacitors (X7R) ...
