These capacitors offer superior performance, low ESR, and reliable performance in harsh conditions.

Film capacitors are composed of two layers of thin dielectric film (usually polypropylene) separated by a thin layer of metallic electrode material. This design provides excellent heat dissipating characteristics, very low ESR (equivalent series resistance), good DC stability, low self-heating, high capacitance, and high dielectric strength. Film capacitors offer the advantage of having low inductance and low dissipation factor as well as remarkable surge strength and excellent damping characteristics.

The capacitor works by storing and maintaining electrical charge in between two sheets of dielectric film. The greater the charge stored, the higher the capacitance and voltage of the capacitor. By passing electrical current through the capacitor, it charges up by way of the dielectric material. As the current increases, it causes an increase in capacitance and voltage outstanding across the capacitor leads. The capacitance is inversely proportional to the rate at which the voltage decreases, thereby causing capacitor to reach its maximum capacity.
