1. What is a paper film capacitor?
Paper film capacitors are actually a conceptual error because "paper film capacitors" are not a standard type of capacitor. Based on the information provided, you may want to ask about paper capacitors and film capacitors.
Paper capacitors
Paper capacitors are capacitors that use paper as a dielectric. It consists of thin paper as the dielectric and aluminum foil as the electrode, which is wound into a cylindrical shape and then impregnated with a shell or epoxy resin. Paper capacitors have the following characteristics:
Low cost: Paper capacitors are usually low-cost and suitable for mass production.
Large loss: Due to its material properties, paper capacitors have large losses.
Application scenarios: Mainly used for bypass, coupling, filtering, etc. in low-frequency circuits. -
2. Are film capacitors suitable for audio?
Suitable
Film capacitors are very suitable for audio applications. Film capacitors perform well in audio circuits and have the following advantages:
Non-polarity: Film capacitors have no positive or negative poles, which gives them greater flexibility in circuit design.
High insulation impedance: The insulation impedance of film capacitors is very high, which can effectively reduce leakage current in the circuit and improve the stability of the circuit.
Excellent frequency characteristics: Film capacitors have a wide frequency response and can provide stable capacitance performance in the high and low frequency ranges, which is suitable for various frequency changes in audio circuits.
Low dielectric loss: The dielectric loss of film capacitors is very small, which means that during the transmission of audio signals, less energy is lost and the integrity of the signal is maintained.
Self-healing properties: Film capacitors have self-healing properties and can automatically repair internal defects when they occur, extending their service life. -
3. Can film capacitors be used for AC?
Yes
Film capacitors can be used for AC. Film capacitors can work normally in AC circuits and have specific application scenarios and advantages.
Structure and working principle of film capacitors
Film capacitors are mainly composed of metal foil (or foil obtained by metallizing plastic) as electrode plates and plastic film as dielectric. Common plastic films include polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene or polycarbonate. These capacitors are usually made by winding or stacking processes to form a cylindrical structure. -
4. What are the alternatives to film capacitors?
CL21 capacitors, MPB capacitors, CBB13, CBB81, MMKP82 capacitors
Alternatives to film capacitors mainly include CL21 capacitors, MPB capacitors, CBB13, CBB81 and MMKP82 capacitors. These alternatives have their own advantages and disadvantages in performance and applicable scenarios, and the specific choice depends on specific needs.
CL21 capacitors
CL21 capacitors and CBB22 capacitors can replace each other in applications such as filtering. CL21 capacitors are more stable than CBB22 capacitors under high-frequency conditions, so CL21 capacitors are more preferred in high-frequency circuits. However, CL21 capacitors are more expensive and perform better in high-frequency circuits.
MPB capacitors
MPB capacitors are boxed metallized polypropylene film capacitors with the same core as CBB22 capacitors, but with a plastic shell, which has better resistance to high temperature, moisture and sealing performance. MPB capacitors can replace CBB22 capacitors in high frequency, DC, AC and pulse high current applications, but their prices are relatively high.
CBB13, CBB81 and MMKP82 capacitors
These capacitors have a higher voltage resistance, up to 3000V, and are suitable for applications requiring higher voltages. However, they are also relatively expensive and larger in size.
