Webinar – Understanding ESR and Ripple Current in Capacitor Selection

High-performance electronic designs rely on the right capacitors to ensure reliability, especially in AC applications. Industry expert Alexander Nebel, Technical Marketing Manager – EMEA for YAGEO Group demonstrates why the basic parameters of capacitance and voltage are insufficient during the selection process. Explore the critical role Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) and ripple current play to significantly enhance advanced designs.

Gain a comprehensive overview of how these factors influence capacitor performance and learn how ripple current capability varies with frequency, temperature, and capacitor technologies including ceramic, aluminum electrolytic, film, and tantalum. Mr. Nebel uses practical examples like DC-Link and resonant circuits along with simulation tools like YAGEO’s Y-SIM for identifying optimal capacitor solutions and design processes.

The one-hour online webinar takes place on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, at 10:00 AM CDT. Even if you are unable to attend the live session, please be sure to register so we can send you a link to the recording when it is complete.
