Vishay Releases New 142RHS Series of Radial, 105°C Aluminum Capacitors with High Capacitance Values

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced the release of a new series of radial aluminum capacitors that offers very high capacitances, high ripple currents, and high-temperature operation up to +105°C.

The 142RHS devices are available in 15 case sizes, ranging from 5mm by 11mm to 18mm by 40mm. Their enhanced maximum temperature rating of 105°C allows operation at higher temperatures or extends component life compared to standard 85°C series. Additional features include a high rated ripple current to 3100mA at +105°C, 100Hz and a capacitance range from 1µF to 22.000µF over a voltage range of 10V to 450V.

As a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a non-solid electrolyte and radial leads, the device’s specifications make it ideally suited for smoothing, filtering, buffering and voltage decoupling applications in SMPS and DC-to-DC power supplies for industrial and telecom systems, domestic appliances, and portable and mobile electronics.

The 142RHS capacitors offer a very long useful life of 2500 hours at +105°C. The RoHS-compliant devices are charge- and discharge-proof.

Samples and production quantities of the 142RHS capacitors are available now, with lead times of 14 weeks for larger orders. Pricing per piece depends on case size, values and annual quantities.
