1. Can ceramic capacitors hold a charge?
Ceramic capacitors can store charge, but they have a higher leakage current than electrolytic capacitors, so they are less able to hold a charge.
-
2. 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.
-
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. What is the difference between Class 1 and Class 2 ceramic capacitors?
Class 1: has high accuracy and stable temperature coefficient, suitable for precision circuits.
Class 2: has higher capacitance value, but larger temperature coefficient and tolerance, suitable for general applications.
