Film Capacitors

Film capacitors, also known as plastic film capacitors, are a type of capacitor that are generally constructed with plastic film substrates and metallized electrodes. The DPFF12D56J-F specifically is a polypropylene film capacitor with two capacitance values, 12 and 56, with letter grading chosen based on the tolerances of the resistance. This type of capacitor is most commonly used in applications that require high stability and insulation resistance, such as in precision timing circuits and filters, or when dealing with high voltage or current levels, such as in power factor correction circuits.

Working Principle

The working principle of a film capacitor is based on the dielectric principle where two conductive surfaces are separated by an insulating medium, usually plastic film. In a single layer capacitor, metal film, usually aluminum, is applied to one side of the film and acts as one plate of the capacitor, while the other is provided by a metallized electrode on the other side. While the metal film on the one side is the charged plate, the metallized electrode acts as the grounded or neutral plate, resulting in an electric field being created between the two. This creates the electric field necessary to store potential energy in the capacitor.

The capacitance of a film capacitor is determined by its two physical components, the dielectric and the plate area. The dielectric is serves as the insulating material, and the material used significantly effects the characteristics of the capacitor such as the voltage breakdown and the inner resistance, as well as the available capacitance. Meanwhile the plate area of the capacitor is determined by the perimeter of the plate and the thickness of the film medium, both of which are related to its size and can be altered to produce various capacitance values.
