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. Do ceramic capacitors deteriorate over time?
While ceramic capacitors are relatively stable, their capacitance value may decrease slightly over time, especially under extreme environmental conditions. However, this change is usually small and will not significantly affect most applications.
-
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. Should ceramic capacitors have continuity?
A properly functioning ceramic capacitor should show a certain capacitance value between its pins, not completely on or off.
