How to find capacitor customers

Where can I find the capacitor I Need?

Regardless of the capacitance that you are searching for - from 0.1 microfarads or 10,000 microfarads - you will find the capacitor you need here at CPC. Discover robust and reliable electrolytic capacitors, tantalum capacitors and a whole lot more from our capacitors range from trusted manufacturers.

How to check the value of a capacitor?

In a layout design, if you have not extracted the value of a capacitor, the only way to check its value is to perform a circuit extraction and find it on the netlist, or run a parasitic extraction and query the properties of the equivalent cell placed by the extractor. Determining the value of a capacitor in a layout design can be done through circuit extraction.

How to identify a capacitor?

Another way to identify the positive and the negative terminals of a capacitor is the length of the two leads. The longer lead is the positive terminal, while the shorter lead is the negative terminal. How To Identify the Value of the Capacitor?

How to design a capacitor?

The designing of small capacitors can be done using ceramic materials by sealed with epoxy resin whereas the commercial purpose capacitors are designed with a metallic foil using thin Mylar sheets otherwise paraffin-impregnated paper. The capacitor is one of the most used components in electronic circuit design.

How to read capacitance of a capacitor?

Those capacitors having capacitance of 1000pf or more, their values can be read by the 3 digits numbers (e.g. 102. 103, 105 etc.) printed on it. These 3 digits color coding can be read as follows. Generally, the overall rating is written and printed on these capacitors. For example The fig 2 (a) The value of capacitance is 47 μF (microfarad).

What factors should be considered when choosing a capacitor?

Tolerance and Working voltage are two important factors to be considered. No capacitor has the rated capacitance and it may vary. So use a good quality capacitor like a Tantalum capacitor in sensitive circuits like oscillator circuits. If the Capacitor is used in AC circuits, it should have a working voltage of 400 volts.
