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. 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. -
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. Can ceramic capacitors be used for audio?
Ceramic capacitors can be used in audio circuits, but care needs to be taken to select the right type to avoid introducing unnecessary noise or distortion.
