Aluminum electrolytic capacitors exhibit low ESR for industrial use
Standardised, low ESR aluminium electrolytic capacitors in the FN series have higher capacitance values than the FK series, says Panasonic Industry Europe.
The FN series of low ESR, surface mount, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are available from a rated voltage of 6.3 to 100V DC and with a wide range of capacitance values (10 up to 1,800 microF). These values are between 20 and 80 per cent higher than Panasonic Industry Europe’s FK series.
They offer 2,000 hours’ lifetime at a rated temperature range from -55 to +105 degrees C and have low ESR. The compact design contributes to space saving on the PCB while the low ESR characteristics render the latest capacitor series suitable for industrial applications like measuring instruments, information and communication technology and also infotainment applications.
Vibration-proof variants of the FN series can also be supplied. With a vibration resistance of 30G, a smooth board design in demanding automotive applications or harsh industrial environment can be guaranteed. The components are RoHS-compliant.
