About Capacitor Coding

by: hkcapacitor   Keywords: Capacitor

I got an email that asked what is the meaning of the first two code of a polyester (mlyar) capacitor. Here is the question:

“Hi Jestine! Hope your doing fine. I just want to ask these question.
Some polyester film mylar capacitor have code markings like these: 2A102K
No doubt that this has a value of  .001uF with a tolerance of +10%. What I need to know
is what does 2A stands for? Is it voltage rating? Others begin with 1H, 2B, 2D,
2E, 2F, 2G, 3A, 3C, etc. Please provide me some data regarding these. Thanks.”

I used to ignore the first two codes as normally it would be in the 50 volts rating and i only calculate the capacitance and the tolerance. Since there are so many different number in the first two numbers, i guess it could be some meaning behind it. From search engine i could not  locate any data about it. If you know what the first two numbers stand for please give a comment- thanks in advance!

FS: JL Audio VR650 CSi components + 6.5" speaker adapters

I'm selling my JL Audio VR 650 CSi components. They are 6.5" - the woofers are in perfect condition, the crossovers have some glue on them from the tape that was used on them to mount inside the doors (has no affect on crossover performance). One of the tweeters needs to be replaced (distorts at high volumes). I ran these in 4ohm stereo (85w each) on my Directed Class D 5 channel amp. I'm also including 6.5" speaker adapters for easy mounting.

Asking $75 shipped for everything.

VR650-CSi Component Systems Specifications:

Specifications Ceramic Capacitor

by: hkcapacitor   Keywords: Ceramic, Capacitor

Ceramic capacitors have a solid body made of high-temperature, ceramic resistive material with bonded metal contacts.

Specifications Ceramic Capacitor:
Ceramic COG (NPO) - Ceramic COG (NPO) capacitors have a high Q, low K, temperature-compensated dielectric and stable electrical properties under varying voltage, temperature, frequency and time. They are suitable for low-lost circuits and for timing and tuning applications.

There are several unofficial, colloquial temperature coefficient designations for capacitors. The temperature coefficient is given as P for positive and N for negative, followed by a 3-digit value in ppm/°C. For example, P100 is +100 ppm/°C and N220 is -200 ppm/°C. The exception to this system is NPO where the letter “O” instead of the number “0” is used; however, the term NP0 is not uncommon. Both NPO and NP0 indicate that the capacitor is stable with temperature.

Ceramic X7R - Ceramic X7R (BX) capacitors have moderate K values and are temperature-stable. They exhibit moderate changes in electrical properties under conditions of changing temperature, voltage, and frequency. X7R capacitors are suitable for bypass, coupling, and frequency discrimination circuit applications. X7R capacitors exhibit no more than 15% capacitance deviation over a -55 °C to +125 °C temperature range.

Ceramic Z5U - Ceramic Z5U capacitors are Class III devices with a dielectric that exhibits a maximum capacitance change of +22% - 56% over an operating temperature range of +10 °C to + 85 °C.

Fused Tantalum Capacitor

by: hkcapacitor   Keywords: Tantalum, Capacitor

AVX’s TAW series of fused tantalum capacitor protect against damaging high DC leakage currents at high currents. Short circuit failure mode protection is accomplished using an internal fuse connected in series with the capacitor.

When the fuse exceeds its current limit, the fused capacitor will fail safe by effectively removing itself from the circuit by creating a high resistance path of above 10MΩ. In some cases this can mean the difference between a total circuit loss and barely detectible performance degradation.

The TAW series tantalum capacitors are fully lead-free and RoHS compliant.
