Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 6.3P
Capacitors tend to be more expensive as their capacitance and maximum voltage V max increase. The voltage V max is limited by the field strength at which the dielectric breaks down, Ebd- Which of these dielectrics will give the largest CVmax product for equal plate areas? (a) Air: đ�œ–y = 1, Ebd = 3 MV/m. (b) Barium titanate: e? = 1200, EBD = 3 MV/m. (c) Silicon dioxide: đ�œ–r = 3.78, EBD = 16 MV/m. (d) Polyethylene: đ�œ–T = 2.26, EBD = 4.7 MV/m.
