CD5EC560JO3F

Mica and PTFE Capacitors

Mica and PTFE capacitors are the most commonly used types of capacitors, particularly in high-frequency electronic applications. CD5EC560JO3F is a particularly well-known type of mica and PTFE capacitor and is widely used in the field of radio frequency (RF) and microwave applications.

Mica and PTFE capacitors are made up of two dielectric layers of mica and PTFE, respectively. The mica is typically an aluminium oxide impregnated mica dielectric, which offers low thermal coefficient of capacitance and high breakdown voltage. On the other hand, the PTFE (also known as Teflon) dielectric layer offers excellent dielectric breakdown voltage and stable capacitance over time and over temperature.

The CD5EC560JO3F capacitor is a multipurpose RF/microwave capacitor with a maximum operating temperature of 135 °C and a maximum DC voltage rating of 10 V. It is a 5-kV rated mica-insulated capacitor with a rated capacitance of 560 pF. The CD5EC560JO3F capacitor is designed to be highly reliable, low-loss, robust, and suitable for use in electronic applications such as power supplies, switching power supplies, resonators, filtering circuits, and low noise electronic amplifiers.

The working principle of the CD5EC560JO3F capacitor is based on the capacitance law, which states that the capacitance of a capacitor is directly proportional to the area of the electrodes and inversely proportional to the distance between them. In the CD5EC560JO3F capacitor, the two electrodes are separated by a very thin layer of mica dielectric, which controls the capacitance. When a voltage is applied to the electrodes, electrons flow through the conductor, resulting in a current, which then creates a charge on the electrodes. This charge then creates an electric field, which prevents further electron flow across the dielectric layers. This then creates a certain amount of capacitance, which can be measured and used for various purposes.

In summary, the CD5EC560JO3F capacitor is a particularly well-known type of mica and PTFE capacitor specifically designed for use in high-frequency applications such as power supplies, switching power supplies, resonators, filtering circuits, and low noise amplifiers. Its working principle is based on the capacitance law, in which it utilizes the two separated electrodes separated by a mica dielectric layer in order to create a capacitance.
