Capacitor Series question
I was just looking through the Digikey catalog for a 200Vdc, 220uf, radial
lead capacitor. No problem I thought, until I got looking.. Can anyone tell me, or point me to a web site, that explains all the different series of capacitors? They vary in price from around $2 up to $8. Thans --- Remove _nospam_ to reply via email. VE7KNL |
Here is a great tutorial site:

The DigiKey catalog itself has info about the salient features of the
various series. Perhaps you want to know specifically what to look for, what matters. Key variables are the ability to handle ripple current and maximum operating temperature. Also, some are rated for high-frequency use...best to not use a low-frequency one in a critical point in a switching power supply, where it would have a high ripple current at the switching frequency. You can also go to the manufacturers' web sites and find info on the various series, and occasionally even find application notes.

Ramsey doesn't seem to have much, but I didn't dig too deep.
