TDK's Film Capacitors
Wide range with low insertion height
TDK-EPC, a group company of the TDK Corporation, has developed a wide range of EPCOS
MKP and MKT film capacitors with low insertion heights. The new capacitors of the B32*6T
series with a lead spacing of 37.5 mm feature insertion heights of only 15 or 19 mm. These
components are designed for rated voltages of between 63 and 2000 V DC or 250 to 400 V
AC. Their capacitance ranges from 0.1 to 82 µF. Depending on type and technology (MKT or
MKP), these capacitors are designed for maximum operating temperatures of 105, 110 or
125 °C.
Applications include DC link circuits as well as DC or AC filtering in converters and power
supplies. Their reduced insertion heights make these capacitors especially suitable for
applications that require a low-profile design for constructional reasons. These include
induction cookers, photovoltaic micro inverters, power supplies for flat-screen TV sets and
LED lighting. Thanks to their low insertion heights, they offer very high mechanical resistance
to vibrations and shocks, making them equally suitable for subassemblies in automotive
electronics.
