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. 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. -
3. How do I know if my ceramic capacitor is bad?
Visual inspection: Check for cracks, bulges, or other physical damage.
Multimeter test: Measure the capacitance value to see if it is close to the nominal value, and check for shorts or opens. -
4. Which side of a ceramic capacitor is the positive side?
Ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, so there is no positive or negative side.
