Multi-Layer Capacitor (MLCC) Loss

Presented by: Istvan Novak In power distribution networks (PDN), capacitors are used in the largest number. Real-life capacitors always have parasitic resistance and inductance and those values are not guaranteed by the vendors, but capacitance is a guaranteed parameter. Surprisingly, however, many modern high-density ceramic multi-layer capacitor (MLCC) may have a huge loss of their …
