Proven technology, phenomenal increase in lifetime and ready for the heat

MUNICH, APRIL 2022

Panasonic Industry’s SP-Cap portfolio of Aluminum Polymer capacitors is the ideal choice wherever a low ESR would be the primary consideration for identifying the most suitable capacitor.

Panasonic’s advanced Solid Polymer technology, the SP-Caps have proven to be an excellent alternative to multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) and pure tantalum capacitors. They require less parts and space on the PCB and provide much better performance, especially for modern and complex low-profile electronical devices, with large capacitance up to 820 µF and a ripple current up to 10.2 Arms.</ … Read More → "Proven technology, phenomenal increase in lifetime and ready for the heat"

TDK offers new Y2 capacitors for high-temperature requirements

April 7, 2022 – TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) presents a new series of EPCOS MKP-Y2 capacitors for interference suppression. In contrast to conventional models designed for a maximum operating temperature of 110 °C, the new capacitors offer a maximum permissible operating temperature of 125 °C. The B3202* H/J series’ capacitance ranges from 1 nF to 1 µF with a maximum rated voltage of 300 V AC. Even under harsh environmental conditions, the capacitors offer a stable capacitance value, proven by the thermal humidity bias test with boundary conditions 85 °C, 85 percent relative humidity, and a 240 V AC operating voltage for 500 hours.

The capacitors are certified according … Read More → "TDK offers new Y2 capacitors for high-temperature requirements"
