Panasonic UK FK-A 1500µF 6.3V Radial Electrolytic Capacitor

The Panasonic UK FK-A series radial leaded aluminium electrolytic capacitor is engineered for high reliability and long service life, offering a robust endurance of up to 4000 hours at a demanding 105°C.

This component is characterised by its low impedance, measuring 10% to 30% less than the previous FC series, making it highly efficient for power supply filtering and energy storage applications. A key advantage is its miniaturised design, which is 30% to 40% smaller in size compared to the FC series, saving valuable space on printed circuit boards (PCBs).

It is AEC-Q200 compliant, meeting stringent automotive-grade qualification standards for reliability under harsh operating conditions. The capacitor is polarised, so correct orientation during installation is essential for optimal performance and safety. Its radial leaded package with a 5mm lead spacing facilitates straightforward through-hole mounting.

With a wide operating temperature range from -55°C to 105°C, it is suitable for demanding environments. The component is designed to handle a ripple current of 1.24A, ensuring stable performance in circuits with fluctuating current. This combination of long life, compact size, and automotive-grade reliability makes it an excellent choice for modern electronic designs where space and durability are critical.
