Creativity is the key to the survival and even continuity of an enterprise.

In the electronic world, many interesting products are born every day, and the inexhaustible creativity of engineers illuminates the way to the future world.

KEMET's creative use of KO-CAP to replace MLCC is a wonderful example.

Out of stock is an enduring topic in the electronics industry, and MLCC out of stock is even more commonplace. Compared with crying and grabbing the ground when the cooking is out, KEMET has found a new way to find an alternative.

Refer to the flow chart below to decide if you can replace MLCC with KO-CAP

For a detailed replacement plan, you can check the article "MLCC Out of Stock: Can't Find the Material You Need? 》

About KO-CAP, we recommend you

1. T52X polymer electrolytic capacitors

Microprocessor decoupling and high ripple current applications

KEMET also has creative performances in the field of film capacitors.

In the past, traditional film capacitors were limited to operating at lower temperatures. However, time has changed, and the technology of film capacitors has developed rapidly, not only surpassing electrolytic capacitors, but also having a longer lifespan than electrolytic capacitors.

Film capacitors have virtually no polarization, have longer operating life (even more so by derating), virtually unlimited shelf life, increased current capacity, provide stable operation over a wider temperature range, and provide better performance than electrolytic capacitors Better mechanical stability.

A good example is KEMET's C4AQ series of DC link capacitors for hybrid vehicles, which can be designed for high RMS currents, have high reliability due to self-healing properties, provide long life expectancy, and can be stored for long periods of time. KEMET's C4AE film capacitors function similarly to the C4AQ series capacitors, but are not automotive grade.
