Suntan is going to releases New X2 EMI Suppression Film Capacitors With Increased Voltage Rating to 310VAC and a wide range of lead pitches and capacitance values with VDE & ENEC and UL safety approvals.

While most standard EMI suppression film capacitors provide a voltage rating of 275 VAC to 305 VAC, Suntan's new TS08S offer designers an increased voltage rating while continuing to meet safety approvals and maintaining the same compact dimensions.

Utilizing the latest film technology to offer lead pitches from 10 mm to 27.5 mm, capacitance values from 0.001 μFto 2.2μF,  the capacitors are optimized for standard across the line applications (50/60 Hz) in power supplies, electronic ballasts, EMI filters, CRT and LCD TVs and monitors, and white goods.

Climatic tested according to EN 60384-14(40/110/56), the encapsulation of the devices consists of a flame retardant UL-class 94 V-0 plastic case, which is epoxy resin sealed. Supplied loose in box or taped on ammopack or reel, the lead (Pb)-free capacitors are RoHS-compliant and feature tinned wire leads.

Samples and production quantities of the new X2 EMI suppression film capacitors are available now, with lead times of 8 to 10 weeks for larger orders. Pricing varies by capacitance value and lead pitch.

In a way, a capacitor is a little like a battery. Although they work in completely different ways, capacitors and batteries both store electrical energy. If you have read How Batteries Work, then you know that a battery has two terminals. Inside the battery, chemical reactions produce electrons on one terminal and absorb electrons on the other terminal. A capacitor is much simpler than a battery, as it can't produce new electrons -- it only stores them.

In theory, the dielectric can be any non-conductive substance. However, for practical applications, specific materials are used that best suit the capacitor's function. Mica, ceramic, cellulose, porcelain, Mylar, Teflon and even air are some of the non-conductive materials used. The dielectric dictates what kind of capacitor it is and for what it is best suited. Depending on the size and type of dielectric, some capacitors are better for high frequency uses, while some are better for high voltage applications. Suntan supply a wide range of capacitors,that can meet most of customers.

• Suntan Plastic Film Capacitors --- Have a wide range ,such as HID lamp, ECU for engine control
• Suntan Ceramic capacitor --- Used for high frequency purposes like antennas, X-ray and MRI machines
• Suntan Tantalum Capacitors --- portable telephones, pagers, personal computers, and automotive electronics.
• Suntan Gold Capacitors --- CMOS's, microcomputers, RAM's and the like used in VCR's, tuners, TV sets, telephone sets and other.

In October 1745, Ewald Georg von Kleist of Pomerania in Germany found that charge could be stored by connecting a generator by a wire to a volume of water in a hand-held glass jar. Von Kleist's hand and the water acted as conductors and the jar as a dielectric. Von Kleist found that after removing the generator, touching the wire resulted in a spark. In a letter describing the experiment, he said "I would not take a second shock for the kingdom of France." The following year, the Dutch physicist Pieter van Musschenbroek invented a similar capacitor, which was named the Leyden jar, after the University of Leyden where he worked. Daniel Gralath was the first to combine several jars in parallel into a "battery" to increase the charge storage capacity.

Benjamin Franklin investigated the Leyden jar, and proved that the charge was stored on the glass, not in the water as others had assumed Leyden jars began to be made by coating the inside and outside of jars with metal foil, leaving a space at the mouth to prevent arcing between the foils. The earliest unit of capacitance was the 'jar', equivalent to about 1 nanofarad.

Leyden jar or flat glass plate construction was used exclusively up until about 1900, when the invention of wireless (radio) created a demand for standard capacitors, and the steady move to higher frequencies required capacitors with lower inductance. A more compact construction began to be used of a flexible dielectric sheet such as oiled paper sandwiched between sheets of metal foil, rolled or folded into a small package.

Early capacitors were also known as condensers, a term that is still occasionally used today. It was coined by Alessandro Volta in 1782 (derived from the Italian condensatore), with reference to the device's ability to store a higher density of electric charge than a normal isolated conductor. Most non-English European languages still use a word derived from "condensatore".
