Film capacitors are a type of electrochemical capacitor, also known as a Plastic Film Capacitor, that use film as the dielectric material. These capacitors utilize both organic materials, such as polypropylene and polyester, and inorganic materials such as polystyrene, polyphenylene sulfide, polycarbazole and polytetrafluoroethylene. Film capacitors are the most common type of capacitor used in electronic applications, such as automotive systems, telecommunications infrastructure and medical equipment.

The F862BK124K310ALR0L is a film capacitor that is most often employed in switching power supplies and other power electronic circuits. It features a low profile design of 17 mm x 8 mm and can operate at both high and low temperatures. It also has an extended lifespan, offers high power density, and is highly resistant to moisture and vibration.

The working principle of a film capacitor is based on the same concept of any other capacitor; two plates of opposite charges held apart but close enough to create a capacitance. In the case of a film capacitor, the plates are placed between two insulating layers. These layers store energy as an electric field, allowing the capacitor to store an electric charge when power is supplied.

When you apply a potential difference across a film capacitor, the dielectric between the two plates accumulates electrical charges on either face of the dielectric layer. These electrons accumulate until the level of the electric field across the dielectric layer is equal to the applied potential difference. At this point, no further charge can be applied, and the capacitor is said to be ‘fully charged’. When the potential difference is removed, the capacitor will remain ‘charged’ until the electric field is weakened by leakage or discharge.

Film capacitors have traditionally been used in low voltage applications due to the fact that film is not as resistant to high voltages as other dielectric materials. However, with advances in technology, film capacitors are now being used in higher voltage applications as well. Film capacitors are inexpensive, durable and versatile, making them ideal for a wide range of industries, from automotive to communications.
