Polypropylene Pulse/High Frequency Capacitors
R73, Polypropylene Film/Foil, Radial
(Automotive Grade)
Overview Applications
The R73 Series is constructed of polypropylene film and metal Typical applications include resonant circuit, high frequency
foil or metallized film and metal foil with radial leads of tinned high current, snubber and silicon-controlled rectifier
wire. The radial leads are electrically welded to the metal (SCR and IGBT) and SiC (e.g. MOSFET) commutation
layer on the ends of the capacitor winding. The capacitor is circuits as well as applications with high voltage and high
encapsulated in a self-extinguishing solvent resistant plastic current. Not suitable for across-the-line application
case with thermosetting resin material meeting the UL 94 (see Suppressor Capacitors).
V0 requirements. Two different winding constructions
are used depending on voltage parameters. Please see
the Performance Characteristics for more information.
Automotive grade devices (up to lead spacing 22.5 mm) meet
the demanding Automotive Electronics Council's AECQ200
qualification requirements.
