Introduction to Film Capacitors and MKT1813347256

Film capacitors, sometimes referred to as plastic film capacitors,polyester film capacitors or polypropylene film capacitors, are a type of capacitor which utilizes a film of plastic material as its dielectric insulating layer. This type of capacitor has numerous advantages over other types of capacitors such as ceramic capacitors or electrolytic capacitors. Film capacitors come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, materials, and specifications, and can be used in countless applications. This article will discuss the application field and working principles of the MKT1813347256 film capacitor in depth.

Applications of the MKT1813347256 Film Capacitor

The MKT1813347256 film capacitor is an axial-leaded, surface-mounted SMD film capacitor, meaning it is designed to be used in surface-mount or other small-footprint applications such as automotive, consumer, telecom, gaming, medical, and audio/video equipment. The capacitor features a polyester dielectric with good thermal and mechanical stability, and has an operating temperature range of -55 to +105 °C. It can be used in many applications, including input and output filtering, snubbing, and power factor correction.

How the MKT1813347256 Film Capacitor Works

The MKT1813347256 film capacitor works by utilizing a metallized aluminum-polyester film as the dielectric insulating layer. The aluminum-polyester film is a plastic film with an extremely thin layer of metal deposited on its surface. This thin metal layer provides the dielectric barrier required to store electric charge and keep two metallic plates from touching each other. This layer is then sandwiched between two metal electrodes, which are connected to the terminals. When a voltage is applied to the terminals of the capacitor, a current flows through the two electrodes. The metal layer in the dielectric insulating layer stores electric charge, which effectively helps reduce the voltage between the two electrodes. This charge remains stored in the capacitor until a discharge current is created, dissipating the electric charge through the conductive layer.

Conclusion

The MKT1813347256 film capacitor is a versatile, reliable and effective component, ideal for many applications including input and output filtering, snubbing, and power factor correction. It features a surface-mount design, a polyester dielectric layer, and can operate in a temperature range of -55 to +105 °C. This film capacitor works by utilizing a metallized aluminum-polyester film as the dielectric insulating layer, which gets sandwiched between two metal electrodes, connected to the terminals. When a voltage is applied, the metal layer in the dielectric stores the charge, which helps reduce the voltage between the plates.
