1. What is the difference between ceramic capacitors and electrolytic capacitors?

Polarity: Ceramic capacitors are non-polar, while electrolytic capacitors are polar.
Capacity range: Electrolytic capacitors generally offer larger capacitance values.
Stability: Ceramic capacitors are more stable, especially when the temperature changes.
Lifespan: Ceramic capacitors have a longer lifespan because there is no liquid electrolyte to dry out.
2. Does the orientation of ceramic capacitors matter?

Ceramic capacitors are non-polar, so the mounting orientation does not affect their function.
3. Why do ceramic capacitors short?

Overvoltage: Exceeding the rated voltage may cause internal breakdown.
Mechanical damage: External impact or pressure.
Manufacturing defects: Problems with the internal structure.
4. Do ceramic capacitors degrade over time?

The capacitance value of ceramic capacitors may decrease slightly over time and environmental factors, but this is usually a slow process.
