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. 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. Does the voltage of ceramic capacitors matter?
Voltage ratings are critical to ensure safe operation. Using a capacitor below the rated voltage may cause premature failure; using a capacitor above the rated voltage may cause immediate damage.
