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. Should ceramic capacitors have continuity?
A properly functioning ceramic capacitor should show a certain capacitance value between its pins, not completely on or off.
-
3. 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.
-
4. What is the difference between Class 1 and Class 2 ceramic capacitors?
Class 1: has high accuracy and stable temperature coefficient, suitable for precision circuits.
Class 2: has higher capacitance value, but larger temperature coefficient and tolerance, suitable for general applications.
