Capacitors, especially film capacitors, are typically used for a variety of applications. The MKP385175100JCI2B0 is a film capacitor manufactured by Kemet, and depending on the application, it can meet various environmental conditions. This article will discuss the specific application field and working principle of the MKP385175100JCI2B0.

What is a Film Capacitor?

Film capacitors are non-polarized components consisting of two flexible sheets of mylar or other dielectric material that are rolled and impregnated with an electrically conductive material, usually tin, aluminum or silver. The sheets are held together with a conductive adhesive or an epoxy, and the advantages of film capacitors include superior pulse handling capability, good temperature stability and excellent arc resistance. They are typically used in applications where temperature stability, pulse handling and arc resistance are important, such as digital and switching power supplies, motor drives and recitifiers.

Application Field and Working Principle of the MKP385175100JCI2B0

The MKP385175100JCI2B0 is a two-way, non-pole-changing film capacitor specifically designed for high voltage applications. It has a rated voltage of 385V, a capacitance value of 175pF, and a dielectric strength of 100kV. Its operating temperature range is from -40°C to +85°C, and it has an insulation resistance of greater than 5000MΩ. With regards to working principle, the MKP385175100JCI2B0 operates on the same principle as other types of capacitors, which is to store electrical energy by forming an electrical field between two plates separated by an insulator. The plates are electrically charged, and when a voltage is applied, the electrical energy is stored in the form of an electric field between the plates. In general, the higher the capacitance value, the greater the amount of energy stored.

The MKP385175100JCI2B0 is well-suited for a variety of applications, including pulse energy storage, AC power switching, power converters, motor drives, high voltage DC circuits, and more. For example, in pulse energy storage applications, the capacitor can store the energy of a high voltage pulse and then release it when necessary. In motor drives, the capacitor can provide the power for the inverter in the motor drive circuit. In AC power switching applications, the capacitor can act as a “snubber” in the switching circuit, providing extra power to handle the switching transient voltage. It can also be used in DC circuits to provide up to its rated voltage.

Conclusion

The MKP385175100JCI2B0 is a film capacitor manufactured by Kemet and is specifically designed for high voltage applications. Its rated voltage is 385V, its capacitance value is 175pF, and its operating temperature range is from -40°C to +85°C. The MKP385175100JCI2B0 operates on the same principles as other types of capacitors, and it is suitable for applications such as pulse energy storage, AC power switching, power converters and motor drives.
