Energy storage capacitors offered in smaller case sizes

These range from 10 mm by 20 mm to 12.5 mm by 40 mm, with capacitance values from 5 F to 22 F.

With their new compact sizes, the standard 220 EDLC, ruggedised 225 EDLC-R, high voltage 230 EDLC-HV, and ruggedised, high voltage 235 EDLC-HVR series ENYCAP capacitors increase power density and save space in a wide range of industrial, renewable energy, and automotive applications.

These include smart meters, handheld electronics, robotics, energy harvesting devices, E-latch door systems, emergency lighting, and more.

Ideal for standard and harsh, high humidity environments, Vishay's ENYCAP capacitors offer useful life up to 2,000 hours at +85 °C to enable maintenance-free operation and greater design flexibility.

Ruggedised devices meet the highest class of moisture resistance, the biased 85 °C / 85 % RH 1500-hour test, while high voltage capacitors offer rated voltages up to 3.0 V.

The RoHS-compliant, AEC-Q200 qualified devices feature rapid charge and discharge performance and are available in through-hole versions.

Samples and production quantities of the ENYCAP capacitors in the smaller case sizes are available now, with lead times of six weeks for larger quantities.
