12.5mm Pitch, High Energy Density and Near Hermetic Seal
Type MLP flatpack capacitors rated to 85 °C, encased in a grade 1100 aluminum case are versatile components for military and aerospace applications. Their high capacitance density in a 12.5 mm pitch permits use in most rack mounting applications. The box shape encourages efficient stacking into module assemblies. Their broad, flat sides make heatsinking simple and effective. The unit’s nearly hermetic seal and high-purity materials assure extremely long life. The MLP has over twice the energy density of a 1⅜-diameter, 105 °C screw-terminal capacitor. It has about four times the energy density of a bank of ½” diameter 105 °C capacitors. Compared to the space lost with the round-can shape of ordinary capacitors, the flatpack package amplifies the space savings by 27%. The high-energy storage and convenient low-profile box shape of these flatpack capacitors make them right for low-profile board applications and for stacked assemblies. Power holdup is the most popular application for equipment as diverse as shipboard antennae and power holdup in the radio system for jet fighters.

The DSM Series responds to the need for supercapacitor storage capabilities at higher voltages than what single components can provide. The new modules are offered in packs with 3, 6, or 10 cells in series, for 9V, 18V, and 30V outputs. Capacitance values from 0.15 to 36.6 farads. These options provide designers with tested, ready-to-use solutions.
Applications
in green energy inverter systems and level 3 EV chargers are placing greater
demands on power conversion circuits that deliver more power with a smaller
footprint. The 944L Series was designed to support the needs of
higher-frequency switching inverters and converters.
Type MLPS Flatpack, is a low-profile aluminum electrolytic capacitor, tested and rated for 10,000 hours at 105 °C. Type MLPS offers high capacitance density in a flat configuration, with voltage ratings up to 450 Vdc and a temperature range from -55 °C to 105 °C. Their rugged construction provides extraordinary life and reliability for the most robust, commercial, and military-grade power supplies.
