Compared to
resistors, capacitors
are the second-most often used discrete electronic component. Inductors would be
the third most used. Sure, every physical component has a combination of of all
three components in the form of parasitics. These companies are the major suppliers
of all forms of capacitors, from the smallest surface mount chip format to the monster
metal can electrolytic capacitors used in power factor correction banks. They make
axial lead, radial lead, electrolytic, tantalum, ceramic, fixed, variable, low voltage,
high voltage, low ESR, and any other variation capacitors. As always, I ask you
to please check with RF Cafe advertisers as your first choice.
