For those seeking higher capacitance without increasing package size, the 1206 1.5kV capacitor, for example, has now been increased to an impressive 10nF, up from 2.7nF.
If physical space is critical, then Syfer’s latest devices offer the possibility of choosing a smaller case size, resulting in not only reduced board space requirements, but lower cost too. For example a 1kV, 1nF capacitor, previously offered in a 1206 package, is now available in the 0805 case size, and a 1kV 10nF part, previously in an 1812 footprint, is now offered in a 1206 package.
The recent extensions give engineers a broader choice of high voltage devices to optimise their designs for performance and package size, while ensuring they are cost effective to meet tight budgetary constraints.
For added reliability, Syfer offers its FlexiCap™ polymer termination option, as an alternative to a standard plated termination. FlexiCap™ accommodates a greater degree of board flex than a conventional termination. Devices meet RoHS standards with lead-free terminations. However, for exempt applications, versions with tin-lead contacts can be supplied. To meet the most stringent quality standards, Syfer can also offer additional testing services.
