Film capacitors

Low ESR, high reliability and long life solutions for industrial, automotive, infrastructure and home appliance applications

Optimize your design

Surface mount types offer stable electric characteristic for DC blocking and filtering, audio and back-lighting in the low/mid-range voltage range.

Radial lead types offer low ESR and long life for filtering and smoothing in industrial, automotive and home appliance applications for mid-range/high voltage and high frequency requirements.

Panasonic's original in-house patterned metalization process

Our patterned metallization technology achieves a very stable capacitance level over the capacitor’s lifetime and therefore guarantees high reliability in the application.

The patterns serve as a fuse mechanism function that prevents catastrophic, short-circuit failure modes.

Furthermore, a long life time is realized by the use of materials that protects against high temperatures and moisture ingress.
