Ceramic Capacitors, commonly referred to as Capacitor Ceramic (MLCC), are a type of fixed capacitor used in electronic circuits. They have the ability to store electrical charge by accumulating electric field between two conductive plates separated by an insulating material called ceramic. The MLCC part stands for Monolithic Ceramic Capacitor and describes how these capacitors are manufactured in one single piece, as opposed to multi-layer constructions. This design makes them smaller, more compact, and suitable for surface mounting on printed circuit boards (PCBs). Their key characteristics include high capacitance values at very low cost, small size, and minimal voltage rating. These features make Ceramic Capacitors widely used in various electronic applications including automotive electronics, communication devices, medical equipment, and consumer products.
