The Hiteca™ range of multilayer ceramic capacitors offers low parasitic losses and zero capacitance ageing, designed for high-capacitance stability under full rated voltage in applications such as DC bus and snubber circuits. Available in sizes 1206, 1210, 1812, 1825, 2220, and 2225, these capacitors operate from -55°C to +125°C with a temperature coefficient of capacitance of ±15% maximum and an insulation resistance of 100GΩ or 1000 seconds, whichever is less. Rated voltages range up to 2000Vdc, with capacitance values up to 470nF depending on size and voltage. The dielectric is designated as Z, and termination options include FlexiCap™ polymer or unplated silver. Packaging is available on 178mm or 330mm reels or in bulk tubs.
For power electronics used in high-temperature environments such as electric vehicles or industrial applications, you can’t afford to protect your capacitors with cooling systems that can add weight and increase your product’s overall footprint. Instead, discover how our Hiteca™ range of multilayer ceramic capacitors delivers low losses while offering high, stable capacitance up to maximum voltage and temperature.
Through our unique, patented dielectric system, Hiteca™ MLCCs are able to achieve a capacitance aging rate of 0% per decade, and a typical capacitance reduction of <45% at full rated voltage. This makes them the perfect choice for applications such as DC bus smoothing, while their non-piezo construction makes them ideal for snubber capacitors. And with lower self-heating properties and low loss operation, they can also handle higher ripple currents than conventional ceramic capacitors. Talk to us today to learn more about our Hiteca™ MLCCs, and explore how they can help you ensure the performance and reliability of your power electronics in a wider range of operating conditions.
