Once you take care of the model's frequency range, you need to decide how to connect the model to the rest of the circuit. As Figure 3 illustrates, a regular two-terminal capacitor is a one-port ...

Figure 1 shows a switching regulator that can generate a lower voltage from a high voltage. In this type of circuit, the bypass capacitor (CBYP) is especially important. It has to support the switched ...

In 2008, Kendall Castor-Perry began an extended investigation into the effect that bypass capacitor selection has on analog circuit performance. Five years on, we’re reposting this classic series, ...

The seemingly ubiquitous bypass capacitor is an important component ... dc supply to furnish voltage to multiple ICs on a printed circuit board (PCB) or across multiple PCBs.
