Philips Components Product specification
Miniature ceramic plate capacitors Class 2, 500 V (DC)
(flanged types)
FEATURES
•Professional circuits
•Coupling and decoupling
•Space saving
•High reliability
•High temperature circuits.
APPLICATIONS
In electronic circuits where non-linear
change of capacitance with
temperature is permissible and low
losses are not essential, e.g. coupling
and decoupling. Because of their
small size, the capacitors are ideal for
circuitry with high component density.
DESCRIPTION
The capacitors consist of a thin
rectangular ceramic plate, both sides
of which are metallized. The tinned
connecting leads are secured using a
high melting point solder. The
capacitors are encapsulated in epoxy
lacquer, which is resistant to all
commonly used cleaning solvents.
They have small dimensions and
narrow tolerances on the lead
spacing. The leads are provided with
a flange. The flange guarantees that
the leads are free of lacquer, and its
shape allows soldering gasses to
escape freely, ensuring excellent
solderability. This makes the
capacitors suitable for both
hand-mounting and automatic
insertion.
