Four YMIN LKZ capacitors replace 48 MLCCs in robot joint motor controllers, reducing PCB space by 20% and costs by over 60%.

The DC-link capacitor is a cornerstone of traction inverters under the hood of EVs. These passive components are used to smooth out and steady DC voltages traveling from the battery into the inverter.

A DC-link capacitor is a key building block of a power converter placed between the inverter and rectifier stages, acting as a local energy reservior. These passives play two primary roles: decoupling ...

A 200 W laboratory prototype of a single-switch quadratic DC–DC converter produced a 400 V output from a 25 V input, with the ...

TDK Corp. has unveiled its xEVCap modular DC link capacitors for powertrain inverters in passenger cars, commercial and off-highway vehicles, and machinery tools. The new scalable and standardized ...

Knowles’ Cornell Dubilier Type BLS DC-link capacitors operate in harsh environments with temperatures up to 125°C. The company reports the capacitors exceed industry standards in temperature-humidity ...

Scientists in India have developed a 500 W seven-level inverter prototype based on switched capacitors. The device is reportedly able to achieve a high efficiency despite switching, conduction, and ...

Capacitors are a crucial component of any electrical circuit, and every engineer should know how they work and when to use them. But as with every electronic component, there’s a lot to understand ...
