Abstract
Printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) technology is disclosed. A PCBA can include a printed circuit board (PCB). The PCBA can also include a capacitor operably mounted on a side of the PCB. In addition, the PCBA can include a damper material coupled to the PCB and operable to dissipate kinetic energy generated by the capacitor during operation. An electronic system including a capacitor and damping material, and a method for minimizing acoustic vibration in an electronic system are also disclosed.
