AVX Extends its Award-Winning TCH Series High Voltage, Hermetically Sealed Polymer Chip Capacitors
Recently recognized with the 2015 Passive & Electromechanical Product of the Year Elektra Award, the TCH Series is the first effective polymer solution for mission-critical automotive & power applications.
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer of passive components and interconnect solutions, has extended its award-winning TCH Series high voltage, hermetically sealed polymer chip capacitors with the addition of a new 33µF/75V code. Packaged in robust, hermetically sealed ceramic cases filled with inert gas in order to eliminate the potential for materials and performance degradation resulting from exposure to high temperature, high humidity, and ambient atmosphere. Manufactured and screened using AVX’s patented Q-Process, which identifies and removes components that may experience excessive parametric shifts or operational instability, TCH Series exhibit high reliability endurance of up to 10,000 hours at 85ºC and rated temperature, and exhibit: low ESR, low derating capabilities, low leakage current (0.1CV), high ripple current, high capacitance (22µF to 330µF), and the high voltages (10-100V)
The product solution is for mission-critical applications, including: automotive, pulse power, and power supplies.
