Topics

In this webinar, I gave a general description of capacitance. Then, I gave an explaination of how capacitance relates to the electromechancial performance of an ultrasonic/piezoelectric transducer. I provided many tip for measurement, including how to practically use capacitance measurements for important analysis.

Here is the outline of the webinar.

• 0:16 - Outline
• 1:20 - Blurb about my consulting work
• 2:39 - Detailed outline
• 4:00 - What is capacitance?
