Cornell Dubilier Electronics, has announced that it has acquired the Orange Drop film capacitor product lines and all other radial product lines, from capacitor maker, SBE.Orange Drop capacitors made with film dielectricThe insulating material between the plates of the capacitor. The material is chosen for its ability to permit electrostatic attraction and repulsion to take place across it. The material will have the property that energy required to establish an electric field is recoverable in whole or in part, as electric energy. In other words, a good dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity while being an effective supporter of electrostatic fields.Capacitor dielectricThe insulating material between the plates of the capacitor.

In other words, a good dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity while being an effective supporter of electrostatic fields. and metallized or foil electrodes are well known for their ‘excellent’ performance in pulse DC and AC circuits. The Orange Drop line consists of around 20 series, each with its ‘unique’ design to cover diverse AC and DC applications ranging from filter caps in switch-mode power supplies, to snubbers that protect IGBT’s in high power inverters.  ...Read more
