1. Why are ceramic capacitors better?
Small size: suitable for high-density circuit board design.
Good temperature resistance: can work over a wide temperature range.
High reliability: no electrolyte, so it is not easy to age.
Good frequency response: suitable for high-frequency applications.
Low ESR: low equivalent series resistance, which helps to improve efficiency. -
2. Can I replace film capacitors with ceramic capacitors?
In many cases, ceramic capacitors can be used to replace film capacitors, especially when smaller size and lower cost are required. However, it is important to note that ceramic capacitors may have different temperature coefficients and self-healing characteristics, which may affect performance in a specific application.
