X2 safety capacitors handle higher voltages and control noise in industrial drives, EV charging systems, energy meters, & other power systems.

Penn State researchers have developed a new high-temperature polymer capacitor that can store four ...

According to the IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronic Terms, power factor (PF) is defined as the ratio of the circuit power (watts) to the circuit volt-amperes. This is described by ...

A squirrel cage induction motor must sense two or more electric phases to cause the magnetic field to start spinning, thus turning the motor’s rotor and shaft. Once the motor starts, the interaction ...

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 ...

I am sure you have often heard analog design described as an art. This statement is especially true when dealing with radio frequencies. However, is it true when dealing with analog “baseband” type ...

Capacitors are at great risk for failure. While it is certain that over time some wear out and no longer adequately serve their purpose, capacitors can also fail prematurely. A component fails when it ...
