Detailed Specifications For Series LXZ
• Miniature
• Lowest Impedance
• Large Capacitance
• Smaller Size
• Solvent Proof
• +105°C Max. Temperature

The new LXZ series capacitors have the lowest impedance and are designed for use in situations at high frequencies. The LXZ series also have a smaller case size than the LXV series and are ideal for use in switching power supplies. These capacitors have many characteristics that make them ideal for these situations including a wide temperature range, large capacitance values, long life and very small size.

The LXZ series capacitors were developed to withstand HCFC cleaning agents for five minutes by ultrasonic, vapor or immersion. This solvent proof design allows all circuit board components to be cleaned together, at the same time, without resorting to more expensive epoxy end-sealed capacitors. Refer to the Mini-Glossary for recommended cleaning conditions.
