COMPOSITE CAPACITANCE AND USE THEREOF

摘要

A composite capacitive component comprises a plurality of physically distinguishable capacitor modules which are electrically connected to each other. The distinguishable modules allow for an increased electrical and/or geometrical flexibility in designing the capacitive component. Each of the capacitor modules comprises a plurality of base capacitors arranged on a module-specific Printed Circuit Board PCB. All the base capacitors from the capacitor modules are of a single type, which simplifies both production and maintenance of the capacitive component.
