Film Capacitors

A film capacitor, also known as a plastic film capacitor, is an electrical capacitor that uses a film of plastic as the dielectric. The dielectric film acts as a conductor when electricity is applied, and provides a far greater capacitance than that of a standard electrolytic capacitor. They are also referred to as polyester capacitors or metalized film capacitors. Film capacitors are consistently used in electronic devices due to their superior electrical properties. They are commonly used for bypassing, blocking, decoupling, filtering, and as timing elements in circuits.

The SFC24S40K303B-F is a film capacitor which is characterized by a dielectric film of polypropylene, in combination with an electrode that is aluminum coated with zinc. This type of capacitor has a wide range of applications and provides excellent performance. The SFC24S40K303B-F is particularly well-suited for AC applications due to its small size, due to its low profile and superior insulation properties.

Application field

The SFC24S40K303B-F film capacitor is suitable in a variety of applications, including in power supplies, keyboards, remote controls, audio systems, instrument amplifiers, cameras, and other electronic equipment. It is commonly used for coupling, bypassing, or blocking applications. It offers low impedance at high frequencies and is highly stable over a wide range of temperatures.

For AC applications, the SFC24S40K303B-F is ideal as it can handle high voltage and has low self-inductance. It is also used in DC circuits for coupling and decoupling, as its wide temperature range and low loss makes it ideal for stability under various conditions. Because of its wide operating temperature range and its low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and ESL (Equivalent Series Inductance) characteristics, it is also commonly used in high frequency switching supplies and motor controllers.

Working Principle

The SFC24S40K303B-F film capacitor is a non-polarized device and utilizes a thin metalized sheet of polypropylene as its dielectric material. This helps to increase the capacitance of the device while increasing the stability of the capacitance value over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies. The electrodes of the device are aluminum coated with zinc which helps to increase the surface area of the electrodes to further increase the capacitance value.

This type of capacitor has an extremely high dielectric strength, which makes it suitable for high voltage AC applications. When an electric current passes through the capacitor, it creates an electric field between the electrodes of the capacitor. This electric field is responsible for storing electrical energy within the capacitor, thus creating capacitance. The capacitance of a capacitor is determined by the area and distance between the electrodes of the capacitor, as well as the permittivity (dielectric constant) of the dielectric material.

Since the SFC24S40K303B-F uses a dielectric material that has a very high dielectric constant, it is able to offer a much higher capacitance value than is achievable through many other types of capacitors. The combination of high capacitance and a metalized film gives the SFC24S40K303B-F film capacitor the ability to deliver excellent performance in a range of electrical applications.
