AVX expands military switch mode power supply capacitor offering
Published:  09 November, 2009

AVX stacked capacitors

AVX Corporation, a manufacturer of advanced passive components and interconnect solutions, has expanded its offering of MIL QPL products with switch mode power supply capacitors that meet MIL PRF 49470 specifications.

These stacked capacitors are designed to have ultra low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL), which make them suitable to handle the large currents and transient voltages of today’s power supplies while maintaining a small footprint. AVX’s MIL QPL products are suited for the filtering capacitor on the input and output of power supplies, or as a snubber capacitor.

 

In addition to expanding its product offering, AVX has extended its test capabilities to include lighting tests (DO-160), signal characterization, RF analysis, and voltage conditioning to meet the demands of customers.

 

AVX stacked capacitors now meet M level and T level certifications for all values, case sizes and voltage ranges over the -55°C to 125°C temperature range.  AVX’s SMX Series can operate up to 200ºC.  Lead-times vary based on the size of product, although stock is available through AVX distribution partners.
