The capacitor auto-discharge module presented in this article is simply a failsafe module that automatically discharges the buffer/filter capacitor in a power supply circuit when its input supply is ...

Dc/dc converters have evolved from simple three-terminal regulator circuits into complex electronic subassemblies that are critical in the power distribution systems of many applications. Good ...

Capacitors are classified according to their dielectric’s type. Electrolytic capacitors are popular in power electronic circuits, due to their high volumetric efficiency and excellent price ...

With their low equivalent series resistance (ESR), which allows for good ripple-current handling as well as high surge-voltage ratings and self-healing properties, film capacitors are strong ...
