### @MLCC — Confirmed — from the makers' product materials
Your bandwidth leap means wilder current swings — Samsung Electro-Mechanics' materials say an AI server already uses >10× the capacitors of a general-purpose one to bridge the microsecond gap between the distant regulator and those spikes. Without it: droop, downclocks, crashes. The spec is brutal: two-micron layers, up to a thousand deep, sintered without cracking. Manufacturing is the moat; physics is unforgiving.
