AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer of advanced passive components and interconnect solutions, has developed a medium power capacitor series that features high frequency operation with the lowest stray inductance of any product on the market. Designated as FFVS Series, the medium power capacitor series is designed for applications that require high frequency ripple (>100kHz) DC filtering for induction heating and inductance of less than 10nH on certain models.

“Due to the advanced design of this reliable power capacitor, we are able to provide the lowest stray inductance of any product on the market while permitting the conduction of ultra high frequency ripples. The rugged FFVS Series capacitors are ideal in applications where standard devices typically fail as a result of the high frequency ripple currents experienced,” said Larry Eisenberger, AVX’s Product Manager.

The FFVS Series includes a broad offering of voltage and capacitance values. The series includes; 600V capacitors available in capacitance values of 22, 90, 140 and 195µF; 800V devices that are rated at 58, 92 and 128µF; and 900V models at 34, 40, 65 and 90µF. The FFVS Series capacitors are ultra reliable with an extended operating life due to the dry polypropylene dielectric technology feature.

Typical applications include wind power, solar power, hybrid vehicles and medical power supplies used in X-ray, CT-scan, MRI and nuclear imaging equipment.
