DICE

Uncased chips [14].

Keyword(s):

DIE BONDING

Process of mounting a chip to a package [14].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC

An insulator; a term applied to the insulating material between the plates of a capacitor [2].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC CONSTANT

The ratio of a given dielectric to the dielectric value of air [2] [11].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC FIELD

The space between and around charged bodies in which their influence is felt.
Also called ELECTRIC FIELD OF FORCE or an ELECTROSTATIC FIELD [1].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC HEATING

The heating of an insulating material by a high-frequency electric field [10].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC HYSTERESIS LOSS

Power loss of a capacitor because of the changes in orientation of
electron orbits in the dielectric; the changes in orientation are caused by rapid reversal in polarity of line voltage. The higher the frequency, the greater the loss [2].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC LEAKAGE

Power loss of a capacitor because of the leakage of current through the
dielectric. Also relates to leakage resistance; the higher the leakage resistance, the lower the dielectric leakage [2].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC LOSSES

The losses resulting from the heating effect on the dielectric material between
conductors [10] [11].

Keyword(s):

DIELECTRIC STRENGTH

The ability of an insulator to withstand a potential difference without
breaking down (usually expressed in terms of voltage) [4].
