MKP383456100JPM2T0

Film Capacitors are a vital category of electronic components, and the MKP383456100JPM2T0 forms an exciting member of the family. In this article, we will describe the application field and working principle of the MKP383456100JPM2T0.

Overview

Film capacitors are one type of the six major types of capacitors used in circuit design. The other types being dielectric, aluminum electrolytic, paper, ceramic and tantalum. Film capacitors are manufactured by layering thin films of polyester, polypropylene, polystyrene, Teflon or other plastics between two pieces of aluminum foil. This creates a ‘sandwich’ structure which has the effect of insulating the conductive aluminum from the dielectric (non-conductive) films of plastic. Using different techniques, the dielectric can be altered to achieve different characteristics, such as higher voltage rating, and both AC and DC leakage currents can be improved.

It has a high insulation resistance, and is available in multiple capacitance values.

Applications of the MKP383456100JPM2T0

The MKP383456100JPM2T0 is the ideal choice for applications such as high frequency switching power supply, switching power supply, mobile communication power supply, AC motor control, solar energy technologies, outdoor LED light strips, and many other high frequency switching and rectification applications.

Working Principle of the MKP383456100JPM2T0

Capacitors store electrical charge. The MKP383456100JPM2T0 is a polarized capacitor, which means that it has a positive and a negative terminal. As charge passes through the capacitor, it stores the charge on the plates and pushes the charge through the plastic dielectric. This electric field increases until the breakdown voltage of the dielectric is reached, and then it disappears.

The total capacitance of the MKP383456100JPM2T0 is determined by the thickness of the dielectric, the size of the plates, and the area of the plates. A thicker dielectric is associated with a higher capacitance, and a larger plate area is associated with a higher capacitance. However, as the size of the plates increases, the electrical field across the dielectric decreases, lowering the available capacitance.

Conclusion

The MKP383456100JPM2T0 is a valuable addition to the existing range of Film Capacitors. With features and performance tailored for commercial applications, the MKP383456100JPM2T0 is sure to be a great addition to any product design. In addition, its unique working principle means that it can accurately store electrical charge and push it through the associated circuit.
