Paktron Capstick Series (CS)

Non-polarized MLP film capacitors, 50-500 VDC, in thru-hole and gull-wing SMD versions for high-frequency power supplies and DC-DC converters.

Description

Paktron's Capstick CS Series is a high performance non-polarized MLP film capacitor family designed for high ripple current, low ESR/ESL, and compact volumetric efficiency in high-frequency power applications. The family includes both thru-hole and gull-wing surface-mount options and is specifically positioned for high frequency switching power supplies and DC-to-DC converters. The Capstick capacitors have “true” voltage ratings and do not require the same derating practices some other dielectric systems use to achieve reliability targets.

Key features

  • Type: Multilayer Polymer (MLP) Film
  • Grade: Hi-Rel/ Rugged
  • Dielectric/Construction: Non-inductively constructed with metallized polyester dielectric (polyethylene terephthalate) in a parallel plate multilayer polymer (MLP) design. Electrodes use aluminum metallization. The case uses UL94V-0 rated epoxy coating, and the lead-frame material is tinned copper alloy.
  • Rated Voltage: 50 VDC to 500 VDC, depending on case size and configuration
  • Capacitance: 0.33 μF to 20.0 μF @ 1 kHz
  • Sizes: CS4 and CS6 case platforms, each offered in thru-hole and gull-wing SMD versions
  • Operating Temp: -55 °C to +125 °C

Applications

  • High frequency switching power supplies
  • DC to DC converters
  • High ripple current filtering
  • Compact high-capacitance power designs
  • Surface-mount or thru-hole power electronics assemblies
