ECQ-P6223JU Application Field

The ECQ-P6223JU is a film capacitor designed for economical general purpose applications, like consumer electronics, HVAC, and automotive systems, as well as industrial control, power conditioning, and lighting systems. In addition, the ECQ-P6223JU is also suitable for flexible and rigid printed circuit boards.

This film capacitor offers extremely low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance), low impedance, high surge loading, and excellent long-term reliability for applications demanding extended temperature and high electrical performance. In consumer electronics, the ECQ-P6223JU film capacitor provides a small, low-profile and reliable component for snubber and energy storage applications.

ECQ-P6223JU Working Principle

The ECQ-P6223JU film capacitor stores energy and ensures a steady electrical signal by relying on the working principle of a dielectric. When two electrodes are placed close together and voltage is applied to them, an electric field builds up in the dielectric material between the electrodes. This electric field stores the energy, and when the voltage is removed, the field collapses and the stored energy is released.

In the case of the ECQ-P6223JU film capacitor, the electrodes are two thin layers of metal foil. The dielectric material is a plastic film, such as polyester, which is coated between the two layers of metal foil. The plastic film acts as an insulator, preventing the electric current from flowing between the electrodes. This capacitor is designed to take advantage of the thin dimensions and high dielectric constant of the plastic film.

The ECQ-P6223JU film capacitor has a dielectric strength of one kilovolt, and provides a higher capacitance in a smaller package than what is possible with other types of capacitors. This provides applications with more power and fewer components. However, the disadvantage with film capacitors is that they are limited to low-frequency applications.

Conclusion

The ECQ-P6223JU film capacitor is specifically designed for economical general purpose applications with a wide range of features. The capacitor offers a small, low-profile, and reliable design for applications demanding extended temperature and high electrical performance. In addition, the plastic film between the two layers of metal foil acts as an insulator, allowing the capacitor to store energy and ensure a steady electrical signal. The ECQ-P6223JU is suitable for consumer electronics, HVAC, and automotive systems, as well as industrial control, power conditioning, and lighting systems.
