INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS

Ranging in voltage from 450 to 5000V and in RMS current ratings from 100 to 2000A, Advanced Conversion Integrated Solutions are the best way to optimize space, cost, and performance for next-generation designs. Application and mechanical layout assistance are available to support your design goals. ESLs as low as 3.5nH have been achieved and validated in systems.

Please take a look at our technology page to see what performance we are able to achieve.

Let us help you choose a test kit or discuss the integrated solution opportunities by reaching out to Dr. Michael Brubaker.

STANDARD BOX CAP REPLACEMENT

Advanced Conversion is now offering replacements for many types of “box capacitors” for High Voltage DC Link and Pulse Capacitors.

Using our well-known ring capacitor approach, the product offering fits on the same footprint as many popular capacitor offerings and has the same terminal connection system. But it offers the following benefits to the traditional box cap approach:

• • Lighter weight
  • Higher pulse capability

• Longer life
• Lower Trise in the DC Link application
• Usually a shorter lead time of 15 – 20 weeks
• Usually lower prices due to lower manufacturing costs

Please refer to the 700D722 Data Sheet (pdf) for more information.

We can likely supply the capacitor you need. Just contact our customer service.
