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. Is ceramic capacitor AC or DC?
Ceramic capacitors can be used in both AC and DC circuits. They have no polarity, so they can be installed at will.
-
3. Does the orientation of ceramic capacitors matter?
Ceramic capacitors are non-polar, so the mounting orientation does not affect their function.
-
4. Should ceramic capacitors have continuity?
A properly functioning ceramic capacitor should show a certain capacitance value between its pins, not completely on or off.
