The new MKP 339 X2, MKP 338 2 X2, and MKP 336 2 X2 from Vishay Intertechnology are X2 EMI suppression film capacitors with an increased maximum mains voltage of 310 VAC and a wide range of lead pitches and capacitance values. These devices differ from conventional EMI suppression capacitors that offer a typical voltage range of 275 VAC to 305 VAC. They offer designers an increase in voltage rating, the same compact dimensions, and continued compliance with all safety approvals. Other product features include lead pitches from 7.5 mm to 27.5 mm, capacitance values from 1 nF to 4.7 µF, and a permissible DC voltage of 630 V. These capacitors are optimized for standard across-the-line applications (50/60 Hz) in power supplies, electronic ballasts, EMI filters, and CRT and LCD TV monitors.
