Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 20: Sectional specification - Fixed metallized polyphenylene sulfide film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors
This part of IEC 60384 is applicable to fixed surface mount capacitors for direct current, with
metallized electrodes and polyphenylene sulfide dielectric for use in electronic equipment.
These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be
mounted directly onto substrates for hybrid circuits or onto printed boards. These capacitors
may have "self-healing properties" depending on conditions of use. They are primarily
intended for applications where the a.c. component is small with respect to the rated voltage.
Capacitors for radio interference suppression are not included, but are covered by
IEC 60384-14.
