capacitor

Device for storing electric charge, used in electronic circuits; it consists of two or more metal plates separated by an insulating layer called a dielectric (see capacitance).

Its capacitance is the ratio of the charge stored on either plate to the potential difference between the plates.

Chinsan will continue to contract supply radial-lead and snap-in types of aluminum capacitors for Hitachi.
DECOUPLING CAPACITORS serve two purposes: to provide charge to the ICs for functionality and to maintain low impedance between power and ground-reference planes in order to reduce/eliminate plane resonances, which would increase EMI emissions.
Gary Rubloff, a chemist at the University of Maryland, says that the secret to the prototype's performance is that it has 10 billion tiny capacitors crammed into every square centimetre.
