KEMET Introduces Space-Saving Film Capacitor for Automotive, Industrial, Consumer, and Energy Applications

FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida, 29. September 2020 – KEMET, a subsidiary of Yageo Corporation (“Yageo”) (TAIEX: 2327) and leading global supplier of electronic components, today announces its new R52 series of compact polypropylene film X2 EMI (electromagnetic interference) suppression capacitors. This series fulfills the growing need of automotive, industrial, consumer, and energy applications that require a smaller, high-capacitance X2 class solution for suppressing EMI. While the R52 series offers capacitance values up to 22µF, 85/85 THB Class IIB classification, and long-life stability in harsh environmental conditions, its volume on average is 60% smaller than other X2 solutions with the same range of capacitance values in the … Read More → "KEMET Introduces Space-Saving Film Capacitor for Automotive, Industrial, Consumer, and Energy Applications"
