Arcotronics Offers New LDE Series Capacitors

August 13, 2001 by Jeff Shepard

Arcotronics (UK) is offering a range of surface-mount products, which are ideal as a low-cost replacement for ceramics in some applications. The polyester-film chip capacitors offer high stability and low ESR.

The Arcotronics LDE surface-mount series of film capacitors are available in values from 1000pF to 4.7mF for 50V to 630V. The capacitors are constructed of a stack of PEN polyester film, in case sizes from 1206 up to 6054. Designed for use in ambient temperatures from -55 to +125 degrees C, the SMT capacitors are supplied on tape and reel for automated insertion.

The self-healing Arcotronics LDE Series capacitors offer a low ESR and low inherent noise levels. They offer high-capacitance stability in conditions of changing temperature and frequency over a long period of time.
