Film capacitors, as the name suggests, are electrical capacitors made with a plastic or polymer film rather than paper. The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is one such capacitor, which is developed and produced by KEMET. In this article, we will discuss the application and working principle of the MKP385533040JKI2B0 film capacitor.

Overview

The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is a polypropylene (PP) metallized film capacitor. It has an outside diameter of 10mm, a total length of 36mm, and a capacitance value of 330nF. Its voltage rating is 400V (DC) and its operating temperature range is -40 to +85℃. Other features include a high ripple current capability, low ESR, excellent stability, and a low profile. The MKP385533040JKI2B0 meets the requirements of UL, CSA, and VDE Safety Standards.

Application

The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is used in a variety of electronic applications, such as power supplies, switch mode power supplies, and high frequency switching, inverters, converters, DC/DC control, etc. The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is also widely used in the automotive industry, as it can withstand harsh temperatures, and is able to maintain a stable performance even in tough environmental conditions. In terms of telecommunications, it is used in high frequency switching, LED backlighting, LED lighting, and low EMI/EMC applications.

Working Principle

The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is a polarized capacitor, meaning that it has one connection that should be connected to the positive terminal and another connection which should be connected to negative terminal. The two terminals are electrically isolated from each other, and the insulating dielectric layer of the capacitor is made of polypropylene. This dielectric material enables the capacitor to store energy.

When a voltage is applied across the terminals, an electric field is created. This electric field causes the molecular structures of the dielectric material to break apart, generating an electrical charge that is stored in the capacitor. The electrons and ions are attracted to the terminals and then moved away from the dielectric material and into the metal plates. This process is called electrical polarization, and it is what allows the MKP385533040JKI2B0 to store energy.

When the voltage is removed, the electric field is no longer present and the molecular structures of the dielectric material recover their original alignment. The electrons and ions are then returned to the dielectric material, discharging the capacitor. The MKP385533040JKI2B0 can be reliably discharged and recharged hundreds of thousands of times, allowing for a long-lasting and efficient performance.

Conclusion

The MKP385533040JKI2B0 is a film capacitor developed and produced by KEMET. It is a polypropylene (PP) metallized film capacitor, and its features include a high ripple current capability, low ESR, excellent stability, and a low profile. It is used in a variety of electronic applications, such as power supplies, switch mode power supplies, and high frequency switching, inverters, converters, DC/DC control, etc. Its working principle is based on electrical polarization, which enables it to store energy.
