DPPM12D68K-F Datasheet/PDFFilm Capacitors
Film capacitors (also known as plastic dielectric capacitors) are film capacitors made of thin film of metal foil or plastic film, dielectric, and aluminum foil, and are used for a wide range of applications. In particular, the DPPM12D68K-F is a film capacitor design that has been specifically created for high-voltage applications and in turn offers a host of advantages in terms of its Working Principle and Application Field.
The DPPM12D68K-F is an axial leaded high-voltage radial capacitor that offers stable performance over a wide temperature range. Featuring a maximum voltage rating of up to 3,000 V and an operational temperature range of -40 degree Celsius to +105 degrees Celsius, the DPPM12D68K-F has been designed to provide superior performance and reliability in both high temperature and high voltage applications.
Working Principle
The DPPM12D68K-F works on the principle of electric field intensification. This electric field intensification is achieved through the combination of the capacitor\'s high voltage and the low dielectric constant of the plastic dielectric. The high electric field intensification, combined with the low dielectric constant, results in a greater breakdown strength of the capacitor and better stability over a wide range of temperatures.
In addition to its high voltage, the DPPM12D68K-F employs a strong dielectric film which helps protect the capacitor from dielectric breakdown. This dielectric film also helps reduce the interference between the metallization and the plastic dielectric, allowing for improved stability and reliability.
Application Field
The DPPM12D68K-F is particularly suited for high-power applications that require a reliable and robust solution. These applications include power supplies, ballasts, engine control systems, automotive lighting, security systems, remote starters, and medical devices. The capacitor\'s high voltage and wide operating temperature range make it particularly useful for these types of applications, allowing it to perform reliably even in extreme conditions.
In addition to these applications, the DPPM12D68K-F is also suitable for use in automotive, electronic, and laboratory testing equipment. Here, the capacitor\'s high breakdown voltage and low ESR values make it exceptionally reliable in testing and measuring high voltage signals, ensuring accurate readings and stable results.
Conclusion
The DPPM12D68K-F is a film capacitor design specifically created for high-voltage applications. Offering a reliable and robust solution for a wide range of applications, the capacitor features a maximum voltage rating of up to 3,000 V and an operational temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications, such as power supplies, ballasts, engine control systems, automotive lighting, security systems, remote starters, and more.
