Capacitive Loading

The dominant resonant mode depends on the RF impedance (high or low) at the distant end of the cable. If the cable is connected to an ungrounded object such as a hand controller it will have a high RF impedance, which will cause a high coupled current at quarter-wave resonance and high coupled voltage at half-wave.

What are impedance/ ESR frequency characteristics in capacitors?

The multilayer ceramic capacitor and leaded film capacitor show roughly the same characteristics up to the resonance point, but the self-resonant frequency is higher and |Z| in the inductive region is lower in the multilayer ceramic capacitor. This is because, in leaded film capacitors, the inductance is only as large as that due to the lead wire.

Op amp stability and input capacitance

without an input capacitor, but the pole is added at f = 1/(2πR F ||R G C IN). If this pole occurs at approximately 3 MHz, it reduces the gain by 3 dB and adds a 45º phase shift at that frequency. Using C IN = 20 pF and R G ||R F = 2.7 kΩ yields a 3-dB frequency of 2.94 MHz, so it is reasonable to assume a pole frequency of 3 MHz. The gain ...
