The voltage-dependent ceramic chip capacitor

The ceramic capacitor’s low cost, ability to withstand temperature extremes, and a wide availability of capacitance values make them extremely attractive for bypass, power and even signal applications. Buried deep in the plethora of charts and curves that describe the performance of these components is the “capacitance vs. voltage” characteristic curve. This article will examine […]

Latest semiconductor players’ results mostly in line, with ‘buy in dip’ opportunities seen

KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 28): Analysts and fund managers, who remain positive on semiconductor players after their latest corporate results broadly met expectations, see “buying the dip” opportunities having emerged following the sector’s recent selldown, which some, like BIMB Securities Research analyst Afifah Abdul Malek, view as unfair, given their healthy balance sheet, huge cash piles, […]
