Film cap for DC link inverters

18 April 2018 Passive Components

TDK introduced an extremely compact EPCOS film capacitor for the DC link of inverters. With dimensions of just 40 x 58 mm (d x l) it offers a rated voltage of 350 V d.c. and a capacitance of 65 μF. This means that the capacitor, which has the order number B32320I2656J011, has a very high capacitance density of 0,9 μF/cm³ and offers up to 50% more capacitance per volume than comparable capacitors. The space it requires on the PCB is correspondingly small.

Other features include the low ESR of just 10 mΩ and the high ripple current capability of 3,7 A. Both the plastic can and the epoxy resin sealing material are designed to be flame-retardant in accordance with UL 94 V0. The capacitor is designed for a temperature range from -25°C to +65°C, and has an integral thermal fuse that trips at a current of 5 A and a temperature of 115°C.

Typical applications include HF filtering in inverters, for example in domestic appliances, as well as general DC applications.
