New lab assortments in film
capacitors
Five at a stroke
To save you the trouble of inquiring
for individual ratings to put into your
design, there are now five practical
sets of film capacitors:
Lead spacing 5:
525 types,
50 to 400 V, 1 nF to 3.3 µF
SilverCaps:
the lowest-cost
models, low in volume, 63
to 400 V, 1 nF to 10 µF
MKPs in wound technology:
for
RF applications, 250 to 2000 V,
1.5 nF to 0.68 µF
MKPs in stacked-film tech-
nology:
300 types, 160 to
1000 V, 1.5 nF to 1 µF
Interference suppression:
150
types with a wide choice of
ratings for different applications
–
X2
with small dimensions,
Safe-X
for maximum security
against active flammability (X2)
and
Y
for suppressing common-
mode interference (Y2)

Ferrites and inductors in modern
office communications
The little things
that do so much
In the multimedia age, ferrites and
inductors often play a key role. In
the switch-mode power supplies
of PCs ETD cores ensure interfe-
rence-free transmission of power.
Ring and E cores in energy-saving
lamps provide pleasant lighting.
Interface transformers in ISDN
systems satisfy the high demands
of CCITT standards. And ultra-flat
planar transformers supply units
and installations with the necessary
power.
For application-specific products
and inductor design you can
count on the support of our
I.F.C. KNOW-HOW CENTER, right
from the initial engineering phase.
