Many single-phase motors used on refrigeration systems will incorporate some type of capacitor. They will either use a start capacitor to aid in its starting or a run capacitor to improve its running ...

Occasionally a design requires capacitors that are much closer to being identical in value to one another than the usual tolerance ranges afford. Precision matching of components from parts on hand ...

Choosing decoupling-capacitor values can seem to be a “no-brainer.” Unfortunately, even though the consequences of selecting the wrong values are often serious, the most commonly used methods usually ...
