MLCC - Multi-layer ceramic capacitors are perhaps the most common capacitor type by sheer volume. Film capacitors are less common but no less important.
In this webinar, Technical Product Managers Mark Laps and Daniele Zanarini focus on the construction and characteristics of these electrostatic capacitor technologies.
Calculating the life expectancy of a component is no easy task. The challenge is compounded further when taking into account humidity. The Film Life Expectancy Model (LEM) simplifies that design task using a novel model and an accompanying tool to aid in the calculation of different performance and mission profiles.
AVX FE series power film capacitors are designed for DC filtering and don’t dry up. FE series capacitors combine a self-healing polypropylene dielectric and low loss film to deliver extremely long life and minimal heating.
