In Reply to: RE: I think the answer must be yes, but how much is uncertain. posted by Tony Lauck on June 22, 2012 at 20:31:17:
Electromagnetic devices with magnetic cores have saturation and hysteresis distortions. Sometimes the best way to look at it is through B=(mu)*H curves.
Steve Bench showed us that capacitors have saturation and hysteresis distortions online, perhaps best seen as D=(epsilon)*E, a very analogous formula for electrostatics.
The dielectric can saturate, too, or break before doing so with an arc-over. They are nonlinear as if magnetic materials, but in many different ways. So plastics distort differently than permalloy, for example.
DA can be seen in the hysteresis of the cap curves.
