CD17CD060DO3

Mica and PTFE capacitors play an important role in the electrical industry, due to their superior performance and reliability in comparison with other dielectric materials. The CD17CD060DO3 is a popular mica capacitor that was designed to meet the needs of various industries, including communication, aerospace, and medical. It is characterized by its compact design, good thermal conductivity, and low dielectric losses.

The CD17CD060DO3 is a two-terminal, multi-layer mica capacitor with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) dielectric. It has a capacitance range of 0.25-120μF, with a maximum operating temperature of 125°C. The construction of the capacitor involves alternating layers of mica and PTFE, and it is housed in a metallic shell for protection against high voltages. The total resistance of the terminal pins is also minimized to ensure better performance in low-current applications.

The CD17CD060DO3 provides high reliability and excellent performance for applications as a stand-alone capacitor or in combination with resistor-capacitor-logic (RCR) and resistor-capacitor-transistor (RCT) circuits. Due to its excellent dielectric properties, the capacitor is used in high-frequency and pulse applications, such as switches, modulators, and oscillators. The high dielectric strength makes the CD17CD060DO3 reliable for use in applications requiring rapid switching or high transient voltages, such as electronic power supplies and high-voltage transformers.

The working principle of the CD17CD060DO3 is based on the fact that two conductive surfaces separated by a material with a different permittivity create capacitance between the two points. PTFE has a lower relative permittivity than mica, therefore the capacitor stores energy between the two layers of material. This energy is then discharged during peak current pulses. The capacitor also reduces the amount of time it takes for the current to change and helps filter out interference from external and parasitic electrical sources.

The CD17CD060DO3 is an ideal choice for applications where high efficiency and good thermal performance are required. It is easily integrated into many existing designs and can be used in combination with RCR and RCT circuits for increased power and Circuit protection. Its extremely low loss factor and minimized total resistance make it suitable for use in power supplies, modulators, and o sc illators, as well as applications in the communication, medical and aerospace industries.
