Film capacitors
Film capacitors are made from a thin film of dielectric material, such as polyester or polypropylene.These non-polarized components have a medium to large capacitance and are commonly used in circuits for filtering and coupling.
Electrolytic capacitors
Electrolytic capacitors are polarized components that use an electrolyte solution as the dielectric material. They have a large capacitance and are commonly used in power supplies and audio equipment.
Ceramic capacitors
These are non-polarized capacitors that use a ceramic material as the dielectric. They have a small to medium capacitance and are commonly used in circuits for filtering and coupling.
Tantalum capacitors
Tantalum capacitors are made from tantalum metal and are known for their high stability and reliability. They are commonly used in portable electronic devices and in high-temperature applications.
Supercapacitors
Supercapacitors, also known as ultracapacitors, are high-capacitance devices that can store large amounts of energy. They are commonly used in applications where a quick release of energy is needed, such as in regenerative braking systems for vehicles.
