Revision: 23-Sep-08

APPLICATION NOTES AND LIMITING CONDITIONS

• For X2 electromagnetic interference suppression where a higher stabililty grade is needed for continuous across the line

applications (50/60 Hz) with a maximum mains voltage of 253 Vac.

• These capacitors are not intended for continuous pulse application. For these situations capacitors of the AC and pulse

programs must be used.

• For series impedance applications we refer to application note: www.vishay.com/docs/28153/anaccaps.pdf

• The maximum ambient temperature must not exceed 100 °C.

• Rated voltage pulse slope:

If the pulse voltage is lower than the rated voltage, the values of the specific reference data can be multiplied by 350 Vdc and

divided by the applied voltage.
