VISHAY General Purpose Film Capacitor, Metallized PET, Radial Box - 2 Pin, 0.47 - 160 250

The VISHAY MKT370 Series offers a range of high-quality, radial leaded, metallized polyester film capacitors. These components are engineered for reliability and stability in demanding electronic circuits, featuring a robust construction with an insulated polyester film dielectric. They are specifically designed to meet automotive-grade standards, ensuring performance in critical applications where durability is essential.

Constructed with a flame-retardant plastic case and an epoxy resin coating over tinned wire leads, these capacitors provide excellent protection against environmental factors and mechanical stress. The 5.08 mm lead pitch spacing facilitates straightforward and secure through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards (PCBs), making them a versatile choice for both prototyping and production runs.

A key feature of this series is its compliance with the AEC-Q200 qualification, confirming its suitability for automotive electronics. The capacitors also adhere to the IEC 60384-2 international standard, guaranteeing consistent quality and electrical performance. With an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85°C, they are built to deliver long-term operational stability.

The capacitance tolerance of ±10% ensures predictable performance in filtering, coupling, decoupling, and timing applications. The components operate effectively across a wide temperature range, maintaining functionality from -55°C to +105°C. This makes them ideal for use in power supplies, motor drives, industrial controls, and various consumer electronics where consistent capacitance is required.

Available in a comprehensive range of E12 decade capacitance values, the MKT370 series provides designers with flexibility for numerous circuit designs. Their non-polarised nature allows for installation without concern for orientation, simplifying assembly processes. The combination of automotive-grade materials, strict compliance standards, and arad‑
