ECQ-V1H184JL

Film Capacitors

Film capacitors, also known as film dielectric capacitors, are the premier capacitor type used in industry today. Film capacitors are the preferred choice for demanding applications where stability, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), high temperature resistance and high frequency performance are essential. Film capacitors are most commonly used in the medical, telecommunications, computer, audio, automotive, industrial and power supply industries.

ECQ-V1H184JL application field and working principle

The ECQ-V1H184JL is a dc-film-loaded, surface-mount metallized polyester film capacitor with radial leads. It has a small size, a low ESR, long service life, and high capacitance stability. The ECQ-V1H184JL is also highly reliable and has a variety of applications, including filtering and decoupling circuits, electrical discharge lamps, static inverters, test instrumentation, switching power supplies, electronic circuits, and camcorder charge pumps.

The ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor\'s working principle is based on capacitive reactance, which is the opposition a capacitor offers to alternating current (AC) and is dependent on the size of the capacitor and the frequency of the AC. Capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the overall size of the capacitor. At a given frequency, the larger the capacitor, the lower its reactance. The ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor has a small size and high capacitance value, which results in a low reactance value and good performance at high frequencies.

In addition, the ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor also features a low equivalent series resistance (ESR), which is important for reducing the amount of power dissipated in the capacitor due to the current flowing through it. Low ESR film capacitors are ideal for applications that require a high frequency of operation.

The ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor also features a long service life, as the polyester film used in its construction is an exceptionally long-lasting material. The ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor\'s high temperature resistance is also superb, as it can withstand temperatures up to 125°C without degradation of its performance.

Overall, the ECQ-V1H184JL capacitor is an excellent choice for applications that require high frequency performance, high capacitance stability, low ESR, and long service life. It is well-suited for use in a variety of applications, including filtering and decoupling circuits, electrical discharge lamps, static inverters, test instrumentation, switching power supplies, electronic circuits, and camcorder charge pumps.
