Electronics company TDK Corporation has released the EPCOS CeraLink, a DC link capacitor for use in fast-switching power modules for industrial and automotive electronics.
According to the company, CeraLink is “based on a PLZT ceramic material (lead lanthanum zirconate titanate) and covers a capacitance range from 1 µF to 100 µF at a rated voltage of 400 V DC.” The company also offers another model at a rated voltage of 800 V DC and a capacitance of 5 µF.
CeraLink is designed for temperatures between -40°C and 125°C and can be produced in “several commonly available terminal configurations, including low profile, SMD, solder pin and press-fit busbar types.”
