An old Electronics Designer’s Casebook described a circuit that provided capacitance measurements of 10 pF to 1 µF with 1% accuracy (Reference 1). A number of issues emerged with the circuit during ...

When you develop the prototype of a circuit using capacitors or when you replace an old, defective capacitor with a new one, you often need to know the value of the capacitor you use or replace. At ...

ABB has announced the development of a portable capacitance meter, the CB-2000, that is simpler to use and easier to carry than any other measuring devices previously available. ABB has announced the ...

Many single-phase motors used on refrigeration systems will incorporate some type of capacitor. They will either use a start capacitor to aid in its starting or a run capacitor to improve its running ...
