“The advantages of the conformally coated radial technology have been a natural fit for the automotive industry and our customers in that market were requesting this type of high-temperature part,” said Neal Smyth, product manager, AVX. “The X8R development was also an obvious evolution of our product line toward an AEC-Q200 part that could work under more extreme temperature conditions.”
AR series capacitors, with AEC-Q200 qualification, are ideal for designers requiring a PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) for new qualifications. All the necessary PPAP data is complete, and is available upon request.
Operational in standard temperatures up to 125ºC and extended temperatures up to 150ºC, AR series devices are available up to 200 VDC with capacitance values ranging from 1pf to 1µF. Available in 16 different case sizes, AR series capacitors are available in straight or formed lead configurations, with lead spacing options ranging from 2.54 to 9.525mm (.100” to .375”). Packaging options include bulk, tape & reel, and ammo package.
