AVX HV02-HV06 DIP leaded stack capacitors, SV conformally coated radiated leaded capacitors, and high voltage MLCCs (>/= 1kV) are now available in DO-160 tested versions rendering them suitable for use in flight applications. The typical civilian aircraft is struck by lightning approximately every 1000 flight-time hours, posing a possible threat to increasingly complex and vital on-board electronics. AVX Corporation now offers lot testing with two DO-160 waveforms—i.e., Waveform 4 – levels 3 and 4 and Waveform 5a and 5b – levels 3 and 4.For more product information, go to the AVX website.
