One reader cited a TI white paper (Coin Cells and Peak Current Draw) where the authors conclude that this is a viable solution.They show a case where a capacitor must sustain a 30 mA load for 1 ms. An ...
Figure 1 graphs the data that I extracted from the Murata tool for several different 4.7 μF ceramic capacitors. I looked at both X5R and X7R types in package sizes from 0603 to 1812 and with voltage ...
Last night I successfully repaired a PSU that had capacitors with domed tops. I remembered I had an old mobo with a couple domed caps. I need a one 470uf/6.3v cap, and one that 1000uf, also 6.3v.
A 0.1 uF capacitor in cold precise code will be exact while a real world 0.1 uF cap’s actual value will fall within some range close to, but never exactly, 0.1 uF. We discovered that the imprecision ...
