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, making it ideal for extreme temperature environments. Its exceptionally low ESR also makes it an excellent choice for power-supply output capacitor applications. The Type 101C features an extended cathode foil construction (Thermal-Pak) to ensure efficient heat flow from the capacitor element to the can across all mounting orientations.
