SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Design engineers debated the practical uses of controlled equivalent series resistance bypass capacitors at an evening panel discussion during DesignCon here Monday (Jan. 29).
System clock frequencies are increasing while logic operating voltages are dropping, resulting in designs that experience high switching-current demands. To meet those demands, designs depend on noise ...
One of the most overlooked, but important performance characteristics of a capacitor used in power circuits is its equivalent series resistance (ESR). ESR determines the capacitor's I 2 R heating ...
Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance) and series resistance play an ...
Got a bunch of questionable electrolytic caps sitting in your junk bin? Looking to recap a vintage radio chassis? Then you might need to measure the equivalent series resistance of the capacitors, in ...
