For all these types of regulator linked (LDO), there is usually a minimum capacitance only. (search the datasheet for ESR). If you are using a switch-mode regulator, then the output capacitor (in current mode controllers) determines the output pole and zero. In voltage mode converters, it forms a resonant circuit with the output inductor.
The basic pioneer work of binary switching theory of reactor and capacitor has been carried out by, S. B. Dewan, R. S. Segworth and M. S. Mckinney in 1969 [1].

A Mechanically Switched Capacitor Reactor (MSCR) is a device used in electrical power systems to control power factor and manage reactive power. Voltage Regulation: MSCRs can also contribute to voltage regulation by influencing the voltage profile in the power system. This is achieved by controlling the reactive power flow in the system.

Voltage regulation is one of the critical quality of supply aspects in any power system. Due to this requirement, voltages must almost always be kept within the utilities defined lower and higher limits. Loads that vary substantially between peak and off-peak times can results in voltages exceeding the upper limits when the load is low and exceeding the lower limits when the load

It is to be noted that steady-state voltage regulation can be achieved by mechanically switched capacitors and reactors (MSC and MSR). However, fast voltage regulation is required to prevent instability under
This paper presents a simplified method to reallocate existing voltage regulators and capacitor banks in distribution feeders. The method is based in applying an exhaustive search to obtain the new equipment position that minimizes an objective function, which is based in the cost of energy loss and voltage violations. To obtain the energy loss and the voltage violations, it is

In cases where such voltage drop is excessive, shunt capacitor banks can be used to improve the power factor of the load and to improve voltage regulation.

I am using a voltage regulator, and to get cleaner power, the datasheet recommends using a 0.33uF capacitor. However, it doesn''t say what type it wants. Stupidly, I went out and bought a 10 pack of 0.33uF 50V Radial Electrolytic Capacitors.After looking up on this site, I found that the symbol means that it is a unpolarized capitator. Will they work because they are polarized?
I''m trying to use an LM1117 linear voltage regulator to convert to 3.3v (input voltage will be 9 or 5 volts; not yet decided). The datasheet suggests using 10uF tantalum capacitors on the input and output. While I could just go with the suggestion, I find most of the tantalum capacitors that are available are considerably more expensive than other capacitors, and in a SMT form factor (I''d
This article presents an efficient voltage regulation method using capacitive reactive power. Simultaneous operation of photovoltaic power systems with the local grids induces voltage instabilities in the distribution lines. These voltage fluctuations cross the allowable limits on several occasions and cause economic losses.
The reality is that these voltage drops are in most cases quite small. In cases where such voltage drop is excessive, shunt capacitor banks can be used to improve the power factor of the load and to improve voltage regulation. Determining the appropriate impedance for a fault current limiting reactor is a relatively simple exercise.
This discharge may cause a rupture of the failed unit with possible damage to the rest of the bank. To prevent it, the maximum reactive power of one series section should not be higher than 4,650 kvar at a rated voltage and 60 Hz frequency. Refer to IEEE Std. C37.99-1990 “IEEE Guide for Protection of Shunt Capacitor Banks 1.
The capacitive reactive power is generated through the capacitance producing devices serially or shunt connected to a load , , . A significant amount of studies was devoted to the methods to produce reactive power, such as DSTATCOMs , , , STATCOM , , , and real electrical capacitors .
Capacitors and reactive loads exchange this reactive power back and forth. This benefits the system because that reactive power (and extra current) does not have to be transmitted from the generators all the way through many transformers and many kilometers of lines. The capacitors can provide the reactive power locally.
Series reactors require integration into the electricity network. This requires consideration of aspects such as physical layout, protection coordination, and voltage control. This note describes some aspects of voltage control in applications where series reactors are installed.
