Standing up under severe ambient test conditions in the arena of +85?C and 85% relative humidity for 1,000 hours under an AC load, and all with a minimum parameter drift, the MKT film capacitors of the B3293 series provide a capacitance range from 0.1 to 10 µF and specify a nominal voltage of 305 Vac to IEC 60384-14. Maximum operating temperature is +105°C and components with capacitances values up to 2.2 µF carry X2 safety certifications (IEC 60384-14 and EN 60384-14). Viable applications include automotive electronics and those in which an uncontrolled change in capacitance can cause circuit malfunction. Sampling now with production volume available in the November/December timeframe, pricing ranges from $0.12 to $3.25 each depending on capacitance. EPCOS INC., Iselin, NJ. (800) 888-7728.
