Learning About Polymer Capacitors – The Learning Circuit

Capacitors are a seemingly simple device. In this episode, James goes deep into what makes polymer capacitors different from other capacitor types. Spoiler alert: it is a material found on the cathode side of the capacitor that makes a polymer, a polymer. Additionally, he covers what to consider when trying to switch from a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) to a polymer. Get the B.O.M. on the element14 community: http://bit.ly/2UlyRrY
