KEMET KPS-MCL Low-Loss SMPS Stacks | New Product Brief
This New Product Brief (NPB) is part of a video series highlighting the features, applications, and technical specs of newly-released products.
KEMET KPS-MCL Low-Loss SMPS Stacks
KEMET Electronics KPS-MCL Low-Loss, High Temperature SMPS Stacks are designed for stable and robust operation in the toughest environments, including down-hole oil exploration and engine compartments in vehicles and aircraft.
KPS-MCL series capacitors are rated for operation from -55°C to 200°C and are based on proprietary materials that exhibit a negligible change in capacitance over the entire temperature range. They’re stacked vertically in a durable metal lead frame that mechanically isolates the capacitors from the PCB and allows for a reduced bulk capacitance footprint.
The vertical stacking reduces ESR and thermal resistance, allowing for high ripple current capability. KEMET KPS-MCL series capacitors are available with voltage ratings up to 2000V. The capacitors are suitable for resonant circuit applications and available in values from 11nF to 1.2µF.
