Development trends with ceramic capacitors
Hi, we’re the new guys!
There are many demands placed on ceramic capacitors: smaller
construction, large temperature ranges, higher efficiency,
stricter tolerances, optimized functions, and higher frequencies,
not to mention the desire for application-specific versions. The
manufacturers do a lot to satisfy all these requests.

use of cheaper, more robust semiconductors,
