Cornell Dubilier Type 101C: Low-ESR, Wide-Temperature Grade Capacitors
Product Overview
The Cornell Dubilier Type 101C is a wide-temperature, low-voltage capacitor designed for high-ripple current military and industrial applications. It offers full performance down to -40 C and solid performance to -55 C. Ideal for power-supply output applications, it features exceptionally low ESR and an extended cathode foil construction (Thermal-Pak) that ensures effective heat flow from the capacitor element to the can in all mounting orientations. Key benefits include 5,000-hour load life, high ripple current capability, and excellent capacitance retention at low temperatures.
