Film Capacitors

Film capacitors, also called film dielectric capacitors, polyester film capacitors, plastic film capacitors, or dielectric film capacitors, are components of electronic circuits whose most basic function is to store electric energy. The most common film capacitors use polypropylene, polystyrene, PVC, and similar materials as their dielectric (insulating) medium.

MKP383420063JIP2T0 Application Field and Working Principle

The MKP383420063JIP2T0 film capacitor is a moulded capacitor featuring plastic film as the dielectric. It is a low ESR capacitor which is optimised for the usage of general power supply.

The basic working principle of a film capacitor is very simple. A film capacitor is an electrochemical device with two metallic plates separated by a layer of insulating material, also known as a dielectric. The electrodes of the capacitor are joined together at one end and connected to a source of power at the other end. When a voltage (or potential difference) is applied across the electrodes, electric current will flow through them. The dielectric used is an insulator which prevents any current from passing between the electrodes; thus, a dielectric film capacitor acts as a storage vessel for electrical energy.
