Film capacitors are types of capacitors that are made mostly of film dielectrics. The film used as a dielectric can be a relatively inexpensive fabric of plastics, or a more expensive, highly purified film. For example, ECH-U1H331JX5 is a film capacitor featuring air-tight construction, temperature-compensating, and long-term stability.

Film capacitors are often chosen when low leakage, long term stability and low levels of inductance are desired characteristics. Film capacitors are used in numerous applications including high frequency snubbers, circuitry for AC power supplies, timing circuits, RF circuits, dielectric resonators, audio amplifiers, and antenna tuning circuits. Film capacitors also find use in switching power supplies to prevent the high-frequency voltage ringing due to the switching circuit. They can also be utilized in the output stage of very high frequency oscillators. Many of the components in modern-day electronics use film capacitors.

The working principle of film capacitors is based on the fact that two objects will store electric charge when placed close to each other and separated by a dielectric material. In a film capacitor, two metal plates are either etched onto the two sides of a plastic dielectric, or stacked with a dielectric material between them. When a voltage is applied to these plates, an electric field is generated between the two plates. As the magnitude of the applied voltage and the distance between the plates are increased, the electric field will increase accordingly. This increases the capacitance and the total charge stored by the capacitor.

Film capacitors exhibit several advantages over competitors, primarily their ability to tolerate high operating temperatures, typically up to 155 degrees Celsius in some cases, while providing excellent insulation and low parasitic components such as inductance and resistance. Additionally, film capacitors are far less prone to failure due to environmental conditions and acts of aging, so they are preferred for use in reliable and long-term applications. Compared to competing capacitors, film capacitors are more expensive, though the cost is eventually offset by their superior performance. Due to the excellent characteristics of these capacitors, ECH-U1H331JX5 are found in many different types of equipment, including power supplies, computer systems, audio equipment, industrial machinery, and medical devices.
