6 FAQs about [How to measure the quality of a common compensation capacitor]
What are the parameters used to measure a capacitor?
Capacitance C, dissipation factor D, and equivalent series resistance ESR are the parameters usually measured. Capacitance is the measure of the quantity of electrical charge that can be held (stored) between the two electrodes. Dissipation factor, also known as loss tangent, serves to indicate capacitor quality.
Why is compensation important for low capacitance measurements?
Obviously compensation is paramount for low capacitance (<1000pF) measurements, where any additional measurement error could significantly effect the displayed value. For any other product-related questions or inquiries, please contact us through one of our sales representatives or this website.
What is the difference between a capacitor and a dissipation factor?
Capacitance is the measure of the quantity of electrical charge that can be held (stored) between the two electrodes. Dissipation factor, also known as loss tangent, serves to indicate capacitor quality. And finally, ESR is a single resistive value of a capacitor representing all real losses.
Can a film capacitor be used to measure capacitance?
Therefore, most of the low-cost instruments that measure capacitance have a footnote stating that their “specifications apply only for film capacitors.” Film capacitors, such as those with polyester and polypropylene dielectrics, have low-enough loss terms that this time-domain technique can give results that are accurate to 1%.
How does AC test affect a capacitor measurement result?
The ac test signal applied during testing of a capacitor may also affect the measurement result. This dependency varies based primarily on the dielectric material used to make the capacitor. Some of the various measurement techniques allow for shielding or guarding and there is a difference between the two.
How do I choose a capacitor?
You don't check. To choose the capacitor, you go to the manufacturer data sheets of the capacitors, which will have the specifications you need to help you choose. You buy from a reputable distributor, and specify the capacitor you want. That way, counterfeits and substitutions are less likely.
