SERIES 1206

EFC Series 1206 are polypropylene and foil capacitors. This series offers the advantage of superior

stability, high insulation resistance, low dissipation factor, negative temperature coefficient and high

frequency operation, dv/dt ratings in excess of 1000 V/

µS. Suggested applications include: timing

circuits, switch mode power supplies (SMPS). snubber circuits. Packaging options include: wrap and

fill (TF, TC), radial lead box (EFR), axial lead (EC, EF). Application options include: snubber circuits

(A1206TC).
