CBB capacitors and CL capacitors look very similar, but their performance differences are so significant 1

CBB capacitors and CL capacitors may be very similar in appearance, both belonging to the capacitor family, but their performance differences are based on their material composition, design, and application scenarios. To understand the difference between these two capacitors, we first need to understand the basic principles of the AD8515AKSZ-REEL7 capacitor, as well as the characteristics and applications of these two capacitors.diode

Basic principles of capacitors

A capacitor is an electronic component used to store electric charge, consisting of two conductive plates (electrodes) and an insulating material (dielectric). When a voltage is applied across the two ends of a capacitor, charges accumulate on the electrodes, forming an electric field. The capacitance of a capacitor, usually expressed in Farads (F), is a measure of its ability to store charge. The size of the capacitance depends on the electrode area, the permittivity of the medium, and the distance between the electrodes. diode

CBB capacitor

CBB capacitor is a type of capacitor that uses metalized polypropylene film as the dielectric, characterized by high insulation resistance, low loss factor, and good temperature stability. CBB capacitors are widely used in AC circuits, especially in high-frequency applications such as high-frequency switching power supplies, inverters, etc. They are also commonly used in signal coupling, filtering, timing, and oscillation circuits.diode
