Thin Film Capacitors

Thin Film Capacitors are electrical components used for various purposes in the aerospace, automotive, medical, telecommunications, military and industrial sectors. They are made up of a dielectric material layer, which is placed between two metal layers. Capacitance is achieved by alternating the dielectric material’s thickness and the area of the opposing metal layers. The most common types of Thin Film Capacitors are Film Capacitors, Mica Capacitors and Ceramic Capacitors.

The 04023JR25PBSTR is a proprietary Thin Film Capacitor designed and produced by Powerbar Solutions. It is an all-ceramic dielectric type, with a built-in positive temperature coefficient to ensure optimal performance under extreme temperature range conditions. This capacitor is designed for general-purpose applications, especially those related to high frequency, high voltage and/or high temperature operations.

Application Field

The 04023JR25PBSTR is generally used in switching power supplies, along with circuit breaker and relay contacts, automotive power modules, aircrafts and spacecrafts, computer peripherals and automation systems.

It is also suitable for high power RF, computer power, Micro-wave oven and medical equipment. Additionally, the capacitor has passed temperature shock testing and can handle high temperature, vibration, and shock in environments that require extremely compact electrical components, such as aerospace and military applications.

Working Principle

Thin Film Capacitors work by allowing electrons to be stored in the electric field generated between a pair of conductive plates. As current passes through the capacitor, the electrons are drawn to one plate and repelled away from the other. This, in turn, creates an electric potential (voltage) across the plates. The 04023JR25PBSTR Thin Film Capacitor works on the same principle, but uses an all-ceramic dielectric instead of metal plates.

This dielectric material is sandwiched between two films of metal electrodes and spaced out in an intricate pattern which creates thousands of tiny capacitors in parallel connection. This results in a much higher capacitance and improved stability, more efficient use of space, higher energy efficiency and lower ESR and ESL values.

The 04023JR25PBSTR is packed and shipped in standard 4 x 7 inch tape and reel packaging and is designed for automated assembly. It has a specific temperature coefficient of -125 ppm/°C which ensures optimal performance even under extreme temperature range conditions.

Conclusion

The 04023JR25PBSTR is a versatile Thin Film Capacitor suitable for use in a wide range of general-purpose applications. It is an all-ceramic dielectric type, with a built-in positive temperature coefficient to ensure optimal performance under extreme temperature range conditions. This capacitor is perfect for applications in automation systems, aircrafts, spacecrafts and other high-end electronics.
