Panasonic FM Series Electrolytic Capacitor 3300µF 16V

The Panasonic FM Series are type A, radial leaded, polarised aluminium electrolytic capacitors. These high-reliability components are engineered to deliver ultra-low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), very high ripple current handling, and an exceptionally long operational life, all within a compact mounting form.

This specific model offers a capacitance of 3300µF and is rated for 16VDC. It is an ideal choice for demanding applications in power supplies and regulation circuits where stable performance and durability are critical. Its construction ensures consistent operation across a wide temperature range.

Key Features & Specifications

• High Ripple Current: Capable of handling up to 3.75A of ripple current, making it suitable for filtering and smoothing in switching power supplies.
• Long Endurance Life: Features an endurance rating of 7000 hours at 105°C, ensuring reliable performance over extended periods in high-temperature environments.
• Broad Operating Range: Functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C.
• Compact Design: With dimensions of 43mm (H) x 33mm (W) x 15mm (D) and a 5mm lead spacing, it is designed for efficient PCB mounting where space is a consideration.
• Standard Tolerance: Offers a standard capacitance tolerance of ±20% for general-purpose circuit design.

As a polarised component, correct installation respecting the anode and cathode markings is essential for safe and proper operation. The robust radial leads provide secure mechanical mounting for wave soldering processes.
