Mica and PTFE Capacitors

The CMR03F171JOAR capacitor is a mica and PTFE capacitor, which combines two dielectric materials, mica and polytetrafluoroethylene (commonly known as PTFE), in one capacitor element. This design offers superior performance, including superior voltage capability compared to other capacitor types.

Application Field

Mica and PTFE capacitors are used for high-voltage applications, such as AC power supplies, voltage multipliers, learning machines, and medical equipment. They are especially suited for use in high-voltage circuits where current leakage and voltage breakdown may pose a risk. They are also used in capacitors for medical equipment, such as MRI scanners, ECG machines, and X-ray machines.

Working Principle

Mica and PTFE capacitors are constructed from a stack of alternating mica and PTFE films. The capacitor is composed of two metal plates, each separated by a film of the dielectric material. During operation, electric charge accumulates on one side, which creates a voltage across the capacitor. This voltage is equal to the sum of the charges in the capacitor.

The capacitance of a mica and PTFE capacitor is determined by a number of factors, such as the dielectric constant of the material, the thickness of the dielectric layers, and the area of the plates. As the voltage applied across the plates increases, electric current flows through the capacitor, and this current causes a shift in the properties of the material, reducing the capacitance. However, mica and PTFE capacitors have a much more stable capacitance than other types of capacitors, making them ideal for higher voltage applications.

Mica and PTFE capacitors are also highly reliable, since the capacity of the material does not decrease over time. This means that once the device is constructed, its capacitance is fixed and remains constant over time. Mica and PTFE capacitors are also resistant to shock and vibration, making them ideal for use in harsh environment applications.

Advantages

Mica and PTFE capacitors provide several advantages over other types of capacitors, including greater voltage capacity, more stable capacitance, and higher reliability. The higher voltage capability of the capacitor enables it to operate safely at higher voltages, allowing for more efficient power distribution in high voltage applications. Additionally, the material does not degrade over time, so the capacitance remains constant. Finally, the capacitor is also resistant to shock and vibration from mechanical disturbances, making it a reliable choice for use in harsh environment applications.
