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 ...

If you’ve done any amount of electronic design work, you’ll be familiar with the need for decoupling capacitors. Sometimes a chip’s datasheet will tell you exactly what kind of caps to place where, ...

One of the longest running problems in PCB (printed-circuit-board) design has been trying to figure how much decoupling capacitors you need for your design. PCB engineers often use too much decoupling ...
