Vishay Intertechnology VY1 and VY2 Series Ceramic Disc Capacitors Now Extended by a Mini Size Series to Save Board Space and ...
April 19 2017 - 11:00AM
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE:VSH) today announced that its
popular VY1 and VY2 series of AC line rated ceramic disc safety
capacitors are now extended by a Mini Size Series with Y5V ceramic
dielectrics. Featuring body diameters down to 7.5 mm, the Vishay
BCcomponents VY1…Y5V and VY2…Y5V are designed to save space, lower
costs, and increase reliability for Class X1 (760 VAC) / Y1 (500
VAC) and Class X1 (440 VAC) / Y2 (300 VAC) applications,
respectively, in accordance with IEC 60384-14.4.
The Y5V dielectric of the devices released today provides a
higher dielectric constant, allowing for a reduction in diameter
without losing capacitance value.
The VY1…Y5V and VY2…Y5V are optimized for RFI and AC line
filtering applications in compact power supplies, power adapters
for home automation devices, E-meters, home appliances, consumer
electronics, and industrial equipment. The Mini Size Series safety
capacitors offer a capacitance range from 1,000 pF to 10,000 pF —
with tolerances of ±20% —and may be operated from -40 °C to +125
°C.
The devices consist of a silver-plated ceramic disc with tinned
copper-clad steel connection leads offering 0.6 mm diameters. The
capacitors are available with vertical (inline) kinked leads or
straight leads with spacing of 10 mm or 12.5 mm for the VY1…Y5V and
5.0 mm, 7.5 mm, 10.0 mm, or 12.5 mm for the VY2…Y5V.
RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green, the components’
encapsulation is made of flame-resistant epoxy resin in accordance
with UL 94 V-0.
