CDE Large Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors Give More Bang for the Buck
View this Webcast on-demand now.
CDE large aluminum electrolytic capacitors feature screw-terminal construction with ThermalPakTM for cool operation, unique box construction MLP FlatpackTM capacitors for the square holes in electronics and a huge range of snap-in capacitors. These large aluminum electrolytic capacitors are the best value capacitors for power electronics because they deliver low cost capacitance in thousands of microfarads at voltages to 600 V. But selection and application is complicated by the need to choose and specify low-cost capacitors that will deliver the needed lifetime under the application conditions.
Join CDE's Laird Macomber for a 15 minute webcast demystifying capacitor selection with these highpoints:
- Realistic performance expectations
- Typical power electronics applications
- Capacitor selection keys for success
- CDE expected life calculator for optimizing your design.
- Review of screw terminal, flatpack and snap-in capacitor choices.
Enjoy the experience of updating your bus capacitor design skills.
