What are the types of capacitors? Detailed explanation of capacitor types

Detailed explanation of capacitor types

1. According to the structure, it is divided into three categories: fixed capacitors, variable capacitors and trimmer capacitors.

2. Classified by dielectric: organic dielectric capacitors, inorganic dielectric capacitors, electrolytic capacitors, electric heating capacitors, and air dielectric capacitors etc.

3. According to the purpose, there are high-frequency bypass capacitors, low-frequency bypass capacitors, filter capacitors, tuning capacitors, high-frequency coupling capacitors, low-frequency coupling capacitors, and small capacitors.

4. According to the different manufacturing materials, it can be divided into: ceramic capacitors, polyester capacitors, electrolytic capacitors, tantalum capacitors, and advanced polypropylene capacitors etc.

5. High frequency bypass: ceramic capacitors, mica capacitors, glass film capacitors, polyester capacitors, glass glaze capacitors.

6. Low frequency bypass: paper capacitors, ceramic capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, polyester capacitors.

7. Filtering: aluminum electrolytic capacitors, paper capacitors, composite paper capacitors, liquid tantalum capacitors.

8. Tuning: ceramic capacitors, mica capacitors, glass film capacitors, polystyrene capacitors.

9. Low coupling: paper capacitors, ceramic capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, polyester capacitors, solid tantalum capacitors.

10. Small capacitors: metallized paper capacitors, ceramic capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, polystyrene capacitors, solid tantalum capacitors, glass glaze capacitors, metallized polyester capacitors, polypropylene capacitors, mica capacitors.
