EPCOS presents its broad spectrum of film capacitors in a new data book. The current portfolio of MKT, MKP, MFP and EMI capacitors are described in detail over 460 pages. Highlights of the new data book are the X2 capacitors of the B3292*E/F* series with high capacitance values of up to 45 µF for especially demanding filtering requirements. The new MKP capacitors have also been included in the data book ...  more

The improved ferrite tool (Version 5.0) allows application-related parameters to be calculated and represented on graphs. Digitized material data of all ferrites from EPCOS can also be accessed. The new database comprises all current ferrite materials from EPCOS. This also includes N45, T36 and T66 for broadband transformers as well as N51 and N95 for power transformers ...  more

EPCOS presents an improved and particularly rugged version of SMT power inductors for automotive electronics. Their design, which features a baseplate with injection-molded termination clips, increases the mechanical stability and improves the temperature distribution during the solder process. Lands with a nickel barrier-layer coating satisfy the tougher demands for use in automotive electronics.  more

For developers of automotive electronics applications, EPCOS – market leader in ceramic multilayer varistors – offers a sample kit with a wide range of these protective components. They feature response times of less than 0.5 ns.  more

MiniCell from EPCOS is a media-separated series of calibrated temperature-compensated pressure transmitters. Thanks to its stainless steel membranes and pressure ports, the MiniCell is well suited for use in aggressive media. The electronics of the new transmitters are hermetically sealed in inert oil in ceramic packages.  more

EPCOS has now extended its series of ASB1200 gel-protected barometric pressure sensors to include new types that feature calibrated analog interfaces. And at only 4 x 4 x 2.5 mm³ they are the world’s smallest sensors of their kind. The heart of the new ASB1200V1 and ASB1200VR sensors is a piezoresistive sensor chip, which is mounted in hybrid technology together with the ASIC. Both types offer integrated signal processing.  more

EPCOS has developed a new power ferrite material with an exceptionally low power loss. In contrast to existing materials, N95 offers a constant loss minimum of 310 kW/m³ over a broad temperature range of between 60 and 100 °C. Depending on the temperature this is 15 to 54 percent lower than the losses of conventional power ferrite materials ...  more

EPCOS has set a further milestone in the miniaturization of pressure sensors: with dimensions of only 2.2 x 2.6 x 0.9 mm³ the calibrated and temperature-compensated T5300 digital pressure sensor is the world’s most compact packaged sensor of its kind. Designed for measuring absolute pressures from 300 to 1200 mbar ...  more

The new BR7000 series of power factor controllers from EPCOS has been developed with an extended range of functions. Among other features, these controllers offer 15 programmable relay outputs for connecting one or three-phase PFC capacitors.  more

The PhaseCap® Compact developed by EPCOS is a new series of PFC capacitors distinguished by its long operating life and large pulse strength. The inrush current can reach up to 300 times and the overcurrent up to twice the rated value.  more

EPCOS was the winner of the Supplier of the Year award in the category Logistics presented by Siemens Motion Control Systems. The achievements in delivery capacity and reliability clinched the award for EPCOS.  more

EPCOS has developed two new PTC components with stainless steel packages for sensing the level of liquids. The B59050D1100B040 type is suitable for measuring water levels and can be operated within a temperature range of between +10 °C and +65 °C.  more

EPCOS has developed a new series of PTC thermistors in the EIA 0603 case size specifically for LED driver circuits. Compared to conventional PTC limit temperature sensors they offer two decisive benefits: their rated resistance has a narrow tolerance of ±15 percent and their R/T characteristic is more exactly specified.  more

EPCOS is introducing the most compact packaged sensors for barometric pressure measurement worldwide. With dimensions of only 1.7 x 1.7 x 0.9 mm³, the components are many times smaller than comparable competitor products and underscore EPCOS’ competence in innovative miniaturization solutions.  more

EPCOS has extended its successful series of PTC inrush current limiters for power supplies. The new packaged PTC elements of the B5910XJ family have comparable electrical properties to their predecessor types, but their heat capacity has been increased from 2 J/K to 2.3 J/K.  more

With the new B84771A*, B84771C* and B84771M* series of IEC inlet filters EPCOS now offers compact filter solutions that cost-effectively combine an IEC connector with an EMC filter.  more

EPCOS has developed RJ45 LAN jacks with integrated magnetic modules for the electrical isolation of common and differential-mode interference. They are available in single, dual and quad-port versions and correspond to IEEE 802.3.  more
