In general, there is mainly two types of variable capacitors and those are: Tuning Type – This is used for continuous tuning of the oscillator circuit in radio or else in another circuit that is tuned. Trimmer Type – This is a small type of variable capacitor that is typically used for one-time oscillator circuit’s internal regulation.
And also based on the temperature range, temperature drift, and tolerance value, ceramic capacitors are further categorized into: Class 1 – Class 1 type of capacitors holds a high level of stability having more linear more properties.
Capacitors are rated according to how near to their actual values they are compared to the rated nominal capacitance with coloured bands or letters used to indicated their actual tolerance. The most common tolerance variation for capacitors is 5% or 10% but some plastic capacitors are rated as low as ±1%.
Trimmer Type – This is a small type of variable capacitor that is typically used for one-time oscillator circuit’s internal regulation. In this type, the capacitors use mechanical structure in order to alter the distance in between the capacitor plates and to adjust the area of plate surface that overlaps.
These are primarily aluminum electrolytic capacitors, and tantalum as well as some film capacitors and Class 2 ceramic capacitors. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors, the most common type for power supplies, experience shorter life expectancy at higher ripple currents.
