SMD-PEN Film Capacitors

WIMA's SMD-PEN metallized polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) SMD film capacitors with box encapsulation

WIMA's SMD covers nearly the entire application range of conventional through-hole plastic film capacitors. All WIMA SMD series are produced with the proven box technology, showing the following advantages in comparison with non-encapsulated or molded SMD capacitor versions:

• Safe protection of the capacitor element against mechanical and thermal stresses during processing and operation
• No danger of internal cracks or tearing away of the contacts due to construction elasticity
• No danger of delamination due to solder plates over the capacitor's entire end surfaces
• Flame-retardant plastic case in accordance with UL 94 V-0

These features and the wide capacitance range enable WIMA SMDs to substitute other capacitor technologies and become standard components in electronic developments.
