Capacitor Technologies for Demanding Power Applications

Aluminum electrolytic, conductive polymer and supercapacitor technologies for industrial, automotive, EV charging, metering and railway electronics.

Capacitor System

Energy storage, ripple handling and lifetime

Capacitors operate under electrical and thermal stresses that influence system stability and service life. MarlinTek's approved Nippon Chemi-Con portfolio covers aluminum electrolytic, conductive polymer and supercapacitor technologies.

Aluminum electrolytic

The approved portfolio includes radial, SMD, snap-in and screw-terminal formats. Selection depends on voltage, capacitance, ripple current, temperature, physical envelope and expected lifetime.

Conductive polymer

Conductive polymer solid capacitors can be relevant where low ESR and high-frequency characteristics are important.

Supercapacitors

Supercapacitor technologies address applications requiring high-energy storage characteristics and should be evaluated according to voltage, energy, cycle and thermal requirements.

Applications: EV, metering and railways

Capacitor selection may be relevant to EV charging and power conversion, metering equipment, railway electronics, industrial power supplies and energy-storage systems. Suitability depends on the required electrical ratings, environmental conditions, qualification needs and the specific product series.

Reliability and lifetime

MarlinTek's reliability capability includes E-cap lifetime calculation using operating ripple current, temperature and rated-temperature information.
