Since these materials have the ability to store electricity (permittivity), which is only about 1/4 that of aluminum electrolytic capacitors, in order to store more electricity, a large amount of film is required, resulting in a larger capacitor size.
A large capacitance capacitor can be made by increasing the area of the electrodes and increasing the size of the capacitor. However, the use of large capacitors makes electronic devices larger and heavier, which leads to higher costs.
Capacitors play a vital role in modern electronic devices, providing stability and efficiency to various systems. Understanding the principles behind their operation, including the role of the electrostatic field, helps in designing and utilizing these components effectively. Different types of capacitors.

In recent years, power semiconductors have evolved greatly in power electronics, where large capacitance capacitors are used, and devices have become more efficient and smaller. Capacitors for these applications are required not only to have a small size and large capacitance but also to have improved heat resistance and longer life.
As mentioned earlier, large capacitance capacitors include electric double-layer capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, and film capacitors, and we have a full lineup of all of these. However, the performance, size, and price of each large capacitance capacitor have advantages and disadvantages.
However, the use of large capacitors makes electronic devices larger and heavier, which leads to higher costs. For this reason, the miniaturization of large capacitance capacitors has always been a concern for customers and the most important task for capacitor manufacturers.

A ceramic capacitor is a non-polarized fixed capacitor made out of two or more alternating layers of ceramic and metal in which the ceramic material acts as the dielectric and the metal acts as the electrodes. The ceramic material is a mixture of finely ground granules of paraelectric or ferroelectric materials, modified by mixed oxides that are necessary to achieve the capacitor''s desired characte…
