Choosing the Correct Capacitor Type for Your Power Supply

[@WalidIssa]

Great Ali. Could you please do videos on inductor cores types saturation and selection

[@andrewdollins2321]

This guy is good his videos helped me out alot!

[@leeaudio027]

You're a fantastic teacher, thank you for sharing, and with a masters level of knowledge

[@padmabhushanb4288]

Greetings! This is Bhushan from Bangalore, India. I had watched all your videos. A required content full of explanation under short span of time - It's really nice. Awaiting for more videos from your end. Thank you!

[@jaredkusner1137]

Thank yo for an awesome class. I learned a lot for choosing the proper cap for the job.

[@markharrisllb]

I’m very much a newbie but I followed and understood everything, thank you.

[@johnkyingilisi4395]

Best 11 mins cap tutorial in the world , short but very informative. well done sir.

[@sadunnakipoglu9471]

أشكرك وأقدر مجهودك ، تحياتي لك من تركيا.

[@hoangphuctrinh7392]

Thank for great video. Sir, can you explain more about ringing problem when low Esr

[@BG-ed9se]

hi thx - please continue - good combination of theory and practical measurement --- btw. the stormtrooper seems to find it interesting as well - since he is moving closer to the measurement place :)

[@linuxinstalled]

This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for the clear explanation.

[@davidahmad6090]

Great video, as usual.

[@zaidhussain5206]

Thank you so much , the lecture very informative to me.

[@jayvadodariya207]

Thank you for this video...

[@jaychaples8828]

Very informative, thank you!

[@VinayYadavTricks]

Wow amazing ,well explained

[@bveeraanilkumarreddy]

Nice 👍

Hello Dr. Shirsavar, Why the capacitance is mentioned in AC event thought the they have DC bias effect. They should be measured in DC condition, isn't it?

[@devarajan2291]

Good information. Could you please post a video on measuring the Capacitance and ESR of the electrolytic capacitors using LCR meter from 100Hz to 100KHz. I read that a two parameter (Cs-Rs) will not give accurate capacitance due to interference of esl at higher frequencies and so we have to use three parameter model(Ls-Cs-Rs). It would be very useful if u post a video on this measurement

[@guytech7310]

The bode plot shown in the video is measuring ESR from DC to more than 1Mhz.

[@cliveradvan3414]

For the aluminium or polymer electros does voltage rating affect ESR? For example if i replace a 10v rated cap with a 100v rated cap is there any substantial characteristic difference?

[@girishkulkarni3537]

How to select smd cap package 0805 or 1206 what is selection criteria

[@SevenDeMagnus]

Thanks. I wish there was only one capacitor- tantulum:-)

[@kevingilbaugh6278]

You didn't mention polarity, which drives selection as much as value.

[@АндрейРощин-х6л]

Unfortunately you forget tell something about leakage current, which pretty high for solid polymer capacitors. 1000uf 16V polymer capacitor may have leakage current about 1-3mA for example

[@mrinmoysaha8280]

Great content sir.. where can I connect wid u?

[@jasbirsingh4583]

Hello sir Can I replace 16v 1000uf to 16v 3300uf ? Atx power supply for amplifier

[@EricPham-gr8pg]

LED ccd batery shielded and touchless no connection so harder to hack

[@ronaldlogan3525]

why don't capacitor manufacturers rate how much power they can handle like resistos. Once you calculate the capacitance and the power of the circuit you need to choose a capacitor that can handle the heat. Why does nobody talk about the heat dissipation of a capacitor ?

[@АндрейРощин-х6л]

Because this dissipations depends on many factors like frequency, ESR, shape of the current, ambient temperature etc. It's not so easy to measure it as for ordinal resistor.

[@СергейЛабунский-б6ц]

I'mt trying to get a smoothed DC on bridge rectifier and a smoothing capacitor. In my case adding a smoothing capacitor leads to an increase in power consumption from the grid (x3 times more). Why is this happening and what should be done to eliminate this effect?

[@guytech7310]

The smooth cap is increasing the RMS voltage on the output side, likely allowing more current to flow into your device. A rectified AC power source will drop to zero volts from the peak as the voltage dives so will power consumption, until the voltage starts rising again. The probably the best way to lower power consumption is to use a voltage regulator that operates near the device's optimal voltage requirement.

[@isacdaimary9908]

Sir What is the name of the instrument you are using at 9:03

[@guytech7310]

Vector network analyzer Bode 100

[@umargul5644]

Well

[@bopcph]

that ceramic capacitor can't und any circumstances be 10 micro farad
