Ceramic capacitors are the workhorses of the capacitor world these days. Ceramic capacitors are used in millions as a result of a combination of their cost and performance. There is a wide variety of dielectrics that can be used, but as the name of the ceramic capacitor suggests, they are all ceramic in nature.

In order to ensure that sufficient levels of capacitance can be obtained within a single capacitor package, ceramic capacitors, like types of capacitor have multiple layers. This increases the level of capacitance to enable the required values of capacitance to be achieved.
