SMPS Capacitors (SK Style)
Commercial Radial Range
PRODUCT OFFERING – C0G, N1500, X7R AND Z5U
AVX SK styles are conformally coated MLC capacitors for input or output filter-
ing in switch mode power supplies. They are specially processed to handle high
currents and are low enough in cost for commercial SMPS application.
