Film capacitors for electronic equipment use

The damage caused by over-voltages on non-fused material is far more extensive than that suffered by fused material. Therefore Panasonic's film capacitors are the ideal solution for high stress applications.

Comparison between general and patterned metallization:

1. Small break down
2. Short circuit mode with risk of smoking or burning out
3. Fuse function isolates the failed cell, and finally leads to open circuit
4. Failed cell is isolated

Surface Mount SMD film (chip) type capacitors are ideal for coupling for DC cutting of amplifiers and output filtering of class D amplifiers.
