Frequently Asked Questions
A: It may get damaged, heat up, or even burst. Always connect the positive and negative leads correctly for electrolytic capacitors.
A: A higher voltage rating is generally safer and more durable, but physically larger in size.
A: Electrolytic capacitors are polarized, have higher capacitance in smaller sizes, and are used mainly in power supply circuits. Ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, more stable at high frequencies, and used in signal and high-frequency applications.
A: Yes, as long as the voltage rating is higher than the circuit voltage, it is safe to use.
