Suntan Ceramic Capacitor Operating Voltage and Frequency Characteristic
When sinusiodal or ripple voltage applied to DC Ceramic Disc Capacitors, be sure to maintain the peak-to-peak value or the Peak value of the sum of both AC + DC within the rated voltage.
When start or stop applying the voltage, resonance may generate irregular voltage.
When rectangular or Pulse Wave Voltage is applied to DC Ceramic Disc Capacitors, the self-heating generated by the capacitor is higher than the sinusoidal application with the same frequency. The allowable voltage rating for the rectangular or pulse wave corresponds approximately with the allowable voltage of a sinusoidal wave with the double fundamental frequency.
The allowable voltage varies, depending on the voltage and the waveform.
