KEMET New Product Launch! Rectangular Polymer Capacitors +125ºC APL90, AEC-Q200 Qualified
The KEMET APL90 is an AEC-Q200 qualified aluminum polymer rectangular capacitor, designed to fulfill 48V automotive applications and related platforms requiring compactness under low profile or low footprint application needs. It offers high capacitance, high ripple current performance and robust vibration resistance. Rated at 125ºC, the APL90 offers excellent volumetric efficiency in a shape that lends itself to stacking into modules.
Its shape, allows for easy use with a heat sink from the large surface area of the aluminum case or along its thickness, as like offers a solution for applications requiring very low profiles. These capacitors can then be mounted in horizontal or vertical position both allowing heat-sink to benefit space usage.
Also, systems needing high energy efficient 48V power supplies, like the ones required for high end data centers, can also benefit with the usage of this product.
Features, Benefits:
∙ Rectangular shape for good volumetric efficiency and modular stacking options
∙ Easy use of multiple heat sink options – allowing IAC optimization
∙ Height restriction solution / Compactness
∙ Life of 2,000 hours at +125°C [(VR) and (IR) applied]
∙ AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive applications
∙ High vibration up to 20 g
∙ Excellent ripple current capability – Up to 26A
∙ Excellent surge voltage capability
∙ Optimized designs available on request
Applications:
- Typical applications are mainly in the field of automotive, such as DC-link on 48V inverters for MHEV, DC-Link on 48V systems motor drives as water pumps, power steering or cooling fans. Also, input capacitors for 48V systems data centers power supplies. Lower voltages (25VDC, 35VDC and 50VDC) are available upon request supporting new design platforms.
