Film Capacitors

Film capacitors, also known as film dielectric capacitors, plastic film capacitors, or polymer film capacitors, are capacitors that use a thin plastic film as a dielectric, instead of the more common oxide layers or air spaces used in other capacitors. Film capacitors are usually cheaper, more reliable, and have lower losses compared to other capacitor types. They are used in a wide range of applications including audio amplification, power conversion, filtering, and signal processing.

ECQ-P1H101JZ3 Application Field and Working Principle

The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 film capacitor is designed for use in a variety of applications including power supply, motor control, and lighting. It is capable of withstanding a maximum voltage of 250 Volts AC, and can handle high voltage transients up to 500 Volts DC. The capacitor has class X2 safety certification, and is suitable for use in safety circuits. The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 has a double layer film structure made up of two layers of polypropylene film and two layers of aluminum foil. The two layers of film act as two capacitors electrically connected in series, providing two capacitances with total capacitance connected in parallel. This provides a very high capacitance with minimal physical size and loss.

The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 operates using the principle of charge and discharge. When voltage is applied, it will charge slowly due to the capacitance. When the voltage is removed, the capacitor will discharge slowly releasing the stored charge. This process is repeated again and again to provide power when needed. The rate of charge and discharge is determined by the resistance of the capacitor, which is determined by the size of the capacitor. The higher the capacitance of the capacitor, the lower the resistance and the faster the rate of charge and discharge. The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 can handle high voltage transients and can be used to filter out any high voltage spikes in the circuit.

The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 is an ideal choice for applications where performance, reliability, and long-term performance are critical. It has low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and high dielectric strength, making it highly reliable and resistant to damage. Its low frequency and high frequency performance is excellent, making it ideal for power factor correction, voltage conversion, and lighting applications. The ECQ-P1H101JZ3 is a high quality, high voltage film capacitor that is perfect for any application requiring reliability, durability, and performance.
