Which of the following capacitors will have the least value of breakdown voltage________ ?
Correct answer: D. Electrolytic
- A. Mica
- B. Paper
- C. Ceramic
- D. Electrolytic
Explanation
Electrolytic capacitors use a very thin oxide dielectric, but their construction and dielectric system generally provide the lowest breakdown-voltage rating among these types. Mica, ceramic, and paper capacitors are commonly made for higher voltage applications.
