Acrylic Stacked Metallized Film Capacitors for Filtering and Noise Attenuation

Type FCA acrylic film chips are non-inductive

stacked metallized film capacitors which feature

large capacitance values in standard surface

mount case sizes.

Highlights

• Smallest film chips

• No piezoelectric effect

• Non-polarized, non-magnetic

• Low ESR

• 1.0 µF/10V in 1206 case

Type FCA acrylic film capacitors offer high

capacitance values in standard surface mount

case sizes. They excel in attenuating DC power

bus noise, and as ripple filters in dc to dc power

conversion circuits. As coupling capacitors in

audio circuits, they yield distortion free sound

and better high frequency filtering. The 1.0 µF 10

Vdc rating offers a film capacitor that is a direct

replacement for tantalum “A” case capacitors.

The nonpolar FCA capacitor has lower ESR

and lower DCL than an equivalent tantalum

capacitor, and in high frequency applications

it takes a tantalum capacitor with ten times

the capacitance to perform as well as the FCA

capacitor.

The capacitor is constructed of noninductive

stacked layers of metallized acrylic resin film

with lead free solder (Sn/Ag/Cu) plated copper

alloy terminals.
