Cathode and Anode: These terms are widely used in electrolysis and electrochemical systems. Understanding them is important, as their charges vary based on the system and reaction they are involved in ...

The rule of thumb to use a 0.1-µF capacitor on the power pin of a semiconductor device is rapidly fading away. Semiconductor products of today have multiple power pins and voltages. But, it is more ...

Wet tantalum capacitors now use the intrinsic capability of a proprietary cathode system to provide high capacitance/voltage characteristics, allowing them to be qualified to DSCC 93026. The Next ...

In “Know the sometimes-surprising interactions in modelling a capacitor-bypass network” (abbreviated to “Know the…” when referred to here), Tamara Schmitz of Intersil and I provided some simulation ...
