Add Voltage Coefficient to Non-Ideal Behavior section

How about adding a paragraph about capacitor value on applied DC voltage in some types of capacitors (especially high-k dielectric ceramics)? This is a common problem which trips up analog designs found with timing circuits, etc. I can get this started from a parameter perspective but do not understand the physics.

Reference 26 link is wrong. Please replace: http://www.johansondielectrics.com/technical-notes.html/age with: www.johansondielectrics.com/technical-notes/general/ceramic-capacitor-aging-made-simple.html Thanks. Robiki (talk) 10:23, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling error. Capacitors are commonly used in electronic devices to maintain power supply while batteries are being changed. Should be: Capacitors are commonly used in electronic devices to maintain power supply while batteries are being charged. Thanks! 69.133.32.134 (talk) 13:07, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

‘changed’ is a correctly spelt word, and I think it makes more sense here. Consider a device that can stay on briefly while its battery is swapped with another. This also applies to non-rechargeable batteries. —James Haigh (talk) 2014-04-27T13:48:29Z

please remove hyperlinked reference to "displacement current"

The corresponding article shows fundamental disputation and obscurantism and there is no purpose to sending readers there. If you substitute the term "some current" for "displacement current", it is possible for the reader to continue learning about the topic of capacitors without having to escape a rabbit hole first.
