1. 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.
-
2. Can I replace film capacitors with ceramic capacitors?
In many cases, ceramic capacitors can be used to replace film capacitors, especially when smaller size and lower cost are required. However, it is important to note that ceramic capacitors may have different temperature coefficients and self-healing characteristics, which may affect performance in a specific application.
-
3. Why do ceramic capacitors make noise?
Some types of ceramic capacitors (particularly Class 2 ceramic capacitors) produce micro-vibrations when the voltage changes due to their material properties, which in turn cause faint mechanical noise.
-
4. Which side of a ceramic capacitor is the positive side?
Ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, so there is no positive or negative side.
