MMKP Series Offers Ultra-Compact Design

TDK Corporation presents two series of EPCOS MMKP capacitors, which employ a film that is metalized on both sides. The capacitors offer particularly high pulse strength as well as a high current capability. Depending on the type and frequency, the permissible current can be up to more than 10 A_RMS. A further outstanding feature is the compact design of the MMKP series. The capacitors have dimensions of between 4 mm x 9 mm x 13 mm and 11 mm x 18.5 mm x 18 mm and are available with lead spacing of 10 mm and 15 mm.

The B32641B and B32642B series of rugged MMKP capacitors are designed for voltages of 630 V_DC or 1000 V_DC and cover a capacitance range from 4.7 nF to 150 nF. The maximum operating temperature is 110°C. The main applications are circuits that operate with high frequencies and currents, including resonant circuits of power supplies with an LLC topology. The MMKP capacitors are also suitable for use in switch-mode power supplies or ballasts for lighting systems.
