Standard for Z5U[*], unexpected for X7R-types. The subject carpacitor(tm) was X5R, but looks more like Z5U than X7R. I'm looking at a few mfrs' offerings to see if anyone's dielectric is better...

Yuck. Graph straight off the ceramic's D-E curve (compare: B-H curve), the derivative that is. Only thing they don't show is hysteresis, which is bound to be comparable. They need to start putting some air gap into those suckers! Tim -- Deep Friar: a very philosophical monk.

I said no, and got essentially blank pages. So, i retried, said yes and everything was there. Drawings, graphs, etc have NOTHING to do with Japanese, and only English was used. WTF???????????????

Have you appointed yourself to be a net-cop on-topic thread-drift enforcer, or do you just try to find a reason to whine about anything that I post? Got anything useful to say about capacitors?
