  2. Capacitor plague - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague

    Failed aluminium electrolytic capacitors with open vents in the top of the can, and visible dried electrolyte residue (reddish-brown color) The capacitor plague was a problem related to a higher-than-expected failure rate of non-solid aluminium electrolytic capacitors between 1999 and 2007, especially those from some Taiwanese manufacturers, [1] [2] due to faulty electrolyte composition that ...

  3. Failure of electronic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_of_electronic...

    Structurally, capacitors consist of electrodes separated by a dielectric, connecting leads, and housing; deterioration of any of these may cause parameter shifts or failure. Shorted failures and leakage due to increase of parallel parasitic resistance are the most common failure modes of capacitors, followed by open failures.

  4. Voltage droop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_droop

    In a regulator not employing droop, when the load is suddenly increased very rapidly (i.e. a transient), the output voltage will momentarily sag. Conversely, when a heavy load is suddenly disconnected, the voltage will show a peak. The output decoupling capacitors have to "absorb" these transients before the control loop has a chance to ...

  5. Should You Cover Your AC Unit In The Winter? Experts Explain

    The AC unit temporarily becomes thing of the past but that doesn't mean it's long forgotten. Within a few months, you'll be needing the cooler temperatures when the weather turns back hot, so what ...

  6. Bleeder resistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeder_resistor

    In electronics, a bleeder resistor, bleeder load, leakage resistor, capacitor discharge resistor or safety discharge resistor is a resistor connected in parallel with the output of a high-voltage power supply circuit for the purpose of discharging the electric charge stored in the power supply's filter capacitors when the equipment is turned off, for safety reasons.

  7. Inrush current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current

    Instantaneous current declines to steady-state current as the capacitor reaches full charge. In the case of open circuit, the capacitor will be charged to the peak AC voltage (one cannot actually charge a capacitor with AC line power, so this refers to a varying but unidirectional voltage; e.g., the voltage output from a rectifier).
