Overview
Panasonic ECQ-E 100VDC is a high-reliability metallized polyester film capacitor series designed for general-purpose DC applications in industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics. This offering includes 100 units of the 1µF, ±10% tolerance variant, each rated for 100V DC operation. The ECQ-E(F) Series features a non-inductive design for interference-free performance, a metalized polyester film for superior reliability and efficiency, and a flame-retardant epoxy resin coating for enhanced safety and durability.
Key Features
- Self-Healing Design: Voltage range of 100 to 1250 V (DC) and capacitance range of 0.001 to 10 microfarads with self-healing capabilities
- Non-Inductive Construction: Minimizes high-frequency noise and interference in sensitive circuits
- Flame-Retardant Coating: Epoxy resin coating enhances safety in demanding environments
- RoHS Compliant: These film capacitors are RoHS compliant to meet environmental standards
- Radial Leaded Package: Standard through-hole mounting for easy integration into circuit boards
- Bulk Packaging: Supplied as a bag of 100 units, ideal for production runs and component inventory
