One particular feature of this series is their high CV product, which enables […]
PSMA/PELS sponsors pre-APEC power electronics capacitor workshop
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) and the IEEE Power Electronics Society (IEEE PELS) are jointly sponsoring its third annual Capacitors in Power Electronics Workshop. This year’s all-day workshop entitled, “How to Choose and Define Capacitor Usage for Emerging Applications,” will be held on Saturday, March 14, 2020, the day before the start of and […]
Film capacitors handle up to 3 kV for dc link apps
TDK presents the new B2568 series of EPCOS MKP DC link power capacitors, which offer outstanding robustness under harsh environmental conditions. The new capacitors are designed for voltages of between 900 and 3000 V DC and cover a capacitance range from 50 to 4000 µF. Depending on type, the capacitors are dimensioned for currents of […]
Bringing science to the selection of mica capacitors
An RF modeler makes it easy to predict in-circuit S-parameters for mica capacitors used at microwave frequencies. Sam G. Parler, Jr., P.E. | Cornell Dubilier The choice of capacitor can particularly impact the performance of circuits handling RF and microwave frequencies. Specifying passive components operating in this region can seem more like art than science. […]
