Parameter Estimation for the Jiles-Atherton Model in Weak Fields

The purpose of this article is to estimate the parameters of the Jiles-Atherton hysteresis model, based on minor-loop measurement data in weak applied fields. The well-known hysteresis model by Jiles and Atherton serves as a basis of this article with an extension for the closure of minor loops. In order to represent minor loops correctly, a...

A quick method to determine the capacitance characteristics of thin layer X5R multilayer capacitors

The effect of Y2O3 concentration on the dielectric properties of ceramic disc capacitors and multilayer capacitors containing 50 dielectric layers with an approximate thickness of 3µm were investigated. The relative permittivity and temperature coefficient of capacity of multilayer capacitors at low and high applied field suggest that two types...
