The MAF series of noise suppression filters now includes the new MAF2520ASS600C type that is designed especially for LED lighting systems. The new multilayer filter has compact dimensions of just 2.5×2.0×0.85 mm and features a suppression of spurious noise between 20 MHz and 100 MHz that is equivalent with that of larger wire-wound components. The […]

200-V MLCCs come in 0805–2220 case sizes
AVX Corporation has extended its space-qualified ESCC QPL 3009 Series X7R multilayer ceramic surface-mount capacitors with new 200V PME MLCCs in 0805–2220 case sizes. Compact, lightweight, and currently available with capacitance values spanning 330pF – 330nF, the new 200V ESCC QPL 3009 PME MLCCs deliver significant performance improvements over 200V MIL-PRF stacked ceramic capacitors and 100V […]
“(Almost) Everything You Wanted to Know about Capacitors” workshop to be pre-APEC event
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) and the IEEE Power Electronics Society (IEEE PELS) are jointly sponsoring an all-day workshop titled, “(Almost) Everything You Wanted to Know About Capacitors But Were Afraid to Ask,” on Saturday, March 3, 2018, the day before the start of and in the same venue as APEC 2018 at the […]
MOSFET PCBs balance high-voltage supercapacitors via low-power leakage-current regulation
High-voltage supercapacitor balancing printed circuit boards are designed to automatically control leakage current and enhance reliability for applications used in data center, industrial automation, public utility, and transportation systems. ALD SABMB810028 boards built with ALD810028SCLI SAB (supercapacitor auto-balancing) MOSFETs provide balancing for 2.8-V, 3.0-V and 3.3-V supercapacitors arranged in a series stack by equalizing the […]

Interference suppressor caps meet 85/85 THB specs, carry safety agency approvals
All-weather MPX/MPXB Series metalized polypropylene capacitors suppress conducted electromagnetic/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) before it can be transmitted via power lines to or from other devices. Designed to connect across the input of an ac mains-powered device, the MPX meets the demanding 85/85 THB (Temperature, Humidity, Bias) test, as well as a full complement of safety […]
Radial-leaded electrolytic caps feature ultra-low ESR, long life, wide temperature range
The NEW FS Series Radial Leaded Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors made by Panasonic features extremely high capacitance, long life and low ESR, all in a significantly smaller case size. The FS Series provides space reduction and allows for a reduced number of capacitors on the board. Low ESR and high ripple current in the FS Series […]
Motor run capacitors handle 100 °C operating temperatures
TDK Corporation presents the new B32355C series of EPCOS MotorCap motor run capacitors, which are designed for a high continuous operating temperature of 100 °C. They are based on a metalized polypropylene film, feature self-healing properties, and conform to Safety Class S3 as specified in IEC 60252-1. These robust capacitors have a rated voltage of 400 V […]
