BFC238056183

Film capacitors, also known as plastic film capacitors, are one of the most popular non-polarized capacitors available in the market. The BFC238056183 is a particularly well-known film capacitor, due to its low esr, low dielectric absorption and excellent frequency response. The application field of this capacitor is remarkably broad – it is used in frequency control, audio-video equipment, measuring instruments and lot more.

The BFC238056183 is an 8 mm pitch, non-polarized wax encased capacitor with mica capacitors inside. It features a 2-layer protection, with polyester film on the outside and a polypropylene dielectric film inside. The capacitor has a temperature rating of 105℃ and a voltage rating of up to 630V. It is available in various values from 4.7pF to 100uF. Its dissipation factor of 0.005 makes it ideal for high frequency operation.

In order to understand how a capacitor works, it is important to understand the basic concepts of capacitance. Capacitance is the property of a conductor which allows it to store an electric charge, provided its surface is free from defects. When a voltage is applied between the two electrodes of a capacitor, an electric field is set up, resulting in a current flow. This current is proportional to the applied voltage, with the equation: I = C*dU/dt. Where C is the capacitance in Farads, and dU/dt is the rate of voltage change.

In the case of the BFC238056183, when a voltage is applied, current flows through the capacitor, resulting in a charge differential between the two electrodes. As a result, a potential is created between the plates and the capacitor can be used to store and release energy as needed. The stored energy can be used to power other electronic components in the circuit.

The BFC238056183 capacitor is a sturdy solution for high frequency applications due to its low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and Dielectric Absorption. The dielectric absorption is a measure of the amount of energy stored in the capacitor which is lost due to dielectric losses when the voltage applied across the capacitor is changed. The low ESR and dielectric absorption of the BFC238056183 makes it ideal for high frequency applications such as frequency control, oscillators and filters, making it an ideal choice for audio-video equipment.

In summary, The BFC238056183 is a film capacitor, an 8 mm pitch, non-polarized wax encased capacitor, with polyester film on the outside and a polypropylene dielectric film inside. It is available in various values from 4.7pF to 100uF, with a temperature rating of 105℃ and a voltage rating of up to 630V. Its low ESR and dielectric absorption makes it an ideal choice for high frequency applications, making it a great choice for frequency control, audio-video equipment, measuring instruments, and more.
