The 940C16W1P5K-F is a polypropylene film capacitor designed for pulse and snubber applications, featuring high dV/dt capability, low ESR, and self-healing properties. It has a capacitance of 1.5 µF, rated for 1600 Vdc (500 Vac), with a capacitance tolerance of ±10%. The capacitor measures 42.0 mm in length and 27.0 mm in diameter, with tin-plated copper axial leads and an epoxy fill meeting UL94V-0. It operates from -55 ºC to 105 ºC, with derated voltage above 85 ºC. The part supports a peak current of 942 A and an RMS current of 20.1 A at 70 ºC, with an ESL of 42 nH and dV/dt of 628 V/µs. The case is wrapped in UL510 polyester tape.
