Panasonic Industry Europe is expanding its conductive polymer hybrid aluminium electrolytic capacitor range with its new ZF series products, rated at 1,000 hours at 150°C, enabling devices to support cutting-edge power train and engine-mounted applications in the automotive sector. Besides the high temperature rating, ZF Series hybrid capacitors are the first available in Through Hole Technology.
Hybrid capacitors are one of the most promising solutions for high-endurance and high-performance application that also require miniaturization. The conductive polymer hybrid enables stable and very low ESR across the full temperature range of -55°C up to +150°C. Ripple currents in the order of 1Arms can be dealt with at peak voltage and temperature while maintaining ESR as low as 20mΩ.
Furthermore, a rated voltage from 25VDC to 63VDC and a capacitance range from 33μF up to 270μF, enable the ZF Series capacitors to cater to both 12V and 48V systems. Like all hybrids, ZF Series devices are fully RoHS-compliant and AEC-Q200-compliant (more info).
