Vishay Film Capacitors
Vishay Film Capacitors are high-performance capacitors that use a thin plastic film as the dielectric material, offering exceptional stability, low loss, and reliability in various electronic applications. These capacitors are widely used in consumer and industrial electronics due to excellent electrical characteristics, such as low equivalent series resistance (ESR), high insulation resistance, and high dielectric strength. Vishay offers a wide range of film capacitors, including polyester, polypropylene, and polycarbonate types, each suited for specific applications. The capacitors are commonly found in power electronics, filtering, decoupling, audio systems, and motor control circuits, where stable performance and longevity are critical. Known for high capacitance tolerance and temperature stability, Vishay Film Capacitors are ideal for applications requiring precision and long-term reliability, making them essential components in modern electronic designs. The Vishay film capacitor facilities are approved by ISO TS 16949, and most of the film and RFI capacitors are approved to CECC specifications.
