APPLICATION NOTE AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
These capacitors are not suitable for mains applications as across-the-line capacitors without additional protection, as described
hereunder. These mains applications are strictly regulated in safety standards and therefore electromagnetic interference
suppression capacitors conforming the standards must be used.
For capacitors connected in parallel, normally the proof voltage and possibly the rated voltage must be reduced. For information
depending of the capacitance value and the number of parallel connections contact: dc-film@vishay.com
To select the capacitor for a certain application, the following conditions must be checked:
1. The peak voltage (U
P
) shall not be greater than the rated DC voltage (U
RDC
).
2. The peak-to-peak voltage (U
P-P
) shall not be greater than 22 x U
RAC
to avoid the ionization inception level.
3. The voltage pulse slope (dU/dt) shall not exceed the rated voltage pulse slope in an RC-circuit at rated voltage and without
ringing. If the pulse voltage is lower than the rated DC voltage, the rated voltage pulse slope may be multiplied by U
RDC
and
divided by the applied voltage.
For all other pulses following equation must be fulfilled:
T is the pulse duration.
The rated voltage pulse slope is valid for ambient temperatures up to 85 °C. For higher temperatures a derating factor of 3 %
per K shall be applied.
4. The maximum component surface temperature rise must be lower than the limits (see graph “Max. allowed component
temperature rise”).
5. Since in circuits used at voltages over 280 V peak-to-peak the risk for an intrinsically active flammability after a capacitor
breakdown (short circuit) increases, it is recommended that the power to the component is limited to 100 times the values
mentioned in the table: “Heat Conductivity”
6. When using these capacitors as across-the-line capacitor in the input filter for mains applications or as series connected with
an impedance to the mains the applicant must guarantee that the following conditions are fulfilled in any case (spikes and
surge voltages from the mains or line card supply included).
