by Tomas Zednicek, EPCI president and author of „High CV MLCC DC/AC Bias Ageing Capacitance Loss Explained” white paper Over the past years, multi-layer ceramic capacitors have undergone significant improvements. The volumetric density has increased several folds. This unfortunately resulted in a big increase in DC and AC bias sensitivity for many parts. In particular,
