A non-polarized capacitor is, as the name suggests, a capacitor that does not have polarized terminals. An ordinary capacitor will have two terminals labeled with a positive or negative sign. These terminals are used to distinguish between the two ends of the capacitor and determine which side has more charge and can be used to […]
