Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) has released the type HZC hybrid polymer-aluminium electrolytic capacitors. Rated for 125C, type HZC combines the advantages of aluminium electrolytic and aluminium polymer technology.
The hybrid capacitors have the ultra-low ESRLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series Resistance characteristics of conductive aluminium polymer capacitors packaged in a V-chip, SMTDiscrete miniature capacitors which are packaged without leads and fastened directly to foil patterns. case with high capacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive. and voltage ratings that were previously available only in aluminium electrolytic technology. Applications for type 125C hybrid capacitors include a variety of industrial power conversion, lighting control and automotive applications.
CapacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive. values range from 10μFUnit of capacitance. The basic unit of a measure of a capacitor. A capacitor charged to 1 volt with a charge of 1 coulombA coulomb is the unit of electric charge. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb.1 coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second. It can also be defined in terms of capacitance and voltage, where one coulomb is defined as one farad of capacitance times one volt of electric potential difference. would have a capacitance of 1 farad. 1 microF = .000001 Farads. to 330μFUnit of capacitance.
