Kemet Webinar
MLCCs are the most common type of capacitor out there. Almost every single electronic device uses MLCCs in a multitude of applications. We all know what MLCC stands for (multilayer ceramic capacitor), but do you know how they are made? What are the different types and how to choose from among all the...

There is a measurable correlation between the rate at which nations attempt to achieve carbon emissions goals and the rate at which they develop electric vehicles. Many of these emissions goals have been set for the year 2025, which means that a significant boost in the demand for components that enable such reductions is well underway.

Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitors
For example, consider two of the main purposes of capacitors in electric vehicles: to prevent ripple currents from reaching back to the power source, and to smooth out DC bus voltage variations. Capacitors are also vital in protecting semiconductors – originally thyristors, but now usually IGBTs.

In applications in which energy conservation is critical, such as wind or solar inverters or electric-vehicle (EV) powertrains, distributing power at high voltage can help to reduce I2R losses. The DC link supplying the inverter can be 3 V to 400 V in an EV application, for example, or even higher for wind or solar-power conditioning. However, high operating voltages like these bring additional safety challenges not only for end users but also for components — even those with a suitable voltage rating stamped on the case.
