The transfer capacitor is an essential component in pulse compression circuits, and its capacitance can significantly impact the output pulse waveform. During the transportation and operation of transfer capacitors, changes in their internal mechanical structure may occur, affecting the capacitance of the transfer capacitor and disrupting the operation of the devices. In this research, the variation of capacitance of transfer capacitors under mechanical stress is investigated. The results indicate that under minor stable vibrations, the capacitance of the transfer capacitor remains relatively constant. However, when exposed to impact stress, the capacitance undergoes discernible changes. This phenomenon arises from the influence of impact stress on the mechanical structure of the transfer capacitor, leading to alterations in the distance between the two electrodes of transfer capacitor.
